Pm me who it was if you don't mind. I think I know who it is too, ive been waiting to get my gears and LSD installed, but waited because I wasn't sure if the installer was competent. Sorry for your troubles man, that sucks.

helow...
I know Im coming in late on this one... it sounds like when the transmission was pulled to do the JWT flywheel, the trans fluid was drained and never filled up again... hence noise and burning smell... rear differential is not going to make noise when not moving... ive done about 50 JWT installs and have never had this problem except when i was fixing when someone "did it themselves" and then it made noise like yours, trans was low about 3 qts...
