whiteline diff bushing gear noise

Charles370 · 03-27-2015, 08:13 PM

I bought a brand new bearing using the bearing a seal kit from Z1. I believe it was the front main pinion bearing because the drive shaft was also moving, could be wrong though. so yea the bearing was new so I probably just got charged for a improper install, but it's all fine now and I don't really feel like complaining

to bring this thread back to life - as I am going to install some Whiteline diff bushings this weekend.

The G37 guys were saying to install the front ear bushings reverse of the instructions with the Thick bushings on top and thin on bottom - they say the pinion angles are more correct this way - thus lessening the drive train noises.

Anyone else concur?

Exactly what I asked a few posts above, the whine is cause depending on how you install the bushings. There is a thick one and a thin one. Where did everyone put either one on the diff? No one answered the question .
