    LS1 T/A Rearend whine

    My brothers friend has a LS1 Trans Am with the SLP 375HP package.

    Ever since he got the car there is a slight whine (2 years now) and he said it is getting a little worse.

    he replaced the wheel bearings in the rear as well as the u-joint.

    but it still whines he took it to a shop and they said its the Axle pitting? never heard of that.

    what else could it be?

    prob gear whine.... pretty typical. if the pion seal is leaking, the crush sleeve is wasted, and if its loose enough, its cause the gear whine too, mainly under load and decel it will make noise then.

    car has never been to the track since he owned it. he just street drives it so i doubt it will really break. i haven't been in the car to hear/feel what it is. but i just thought i'd ask.
