My question is do tighter diffs make more noise on slight lock etc as they are locking up more quickly ? I ask as mine came from a rally car and could be setup for that. I have no reason to think it is broken as the history added up it looked good and was in 6j packing. It was setup in the axle by RACE. I also used the oil they recommended. I am thinking mine just less suited to road work because of the settings etc if that makes sense and am i worrying over nothing or maybe needs bedding in more. Without removing it is hard to say how it is setup
Any advice appreciated as it seems to work it's just the noise seems counter intuitive although i can understand that it is friction plates.
