Ants Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 So problem number one............ There is a knocking noise from the rear when I brake or put the car in reverse. The best way I can describe is like backlash from within rear driveline, a bit like a weight being pushed forwards then going backwards. Its not a harsh noise. I have had this problem ever since I have owned the car. It does not happen all the the time but I would like to get rid of this pesky issue. Im thinking the rear diff is the culprit. Anyone have any thoughts? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431233-mugabetown-whoretownin-at-its-worst/page/768/#findComment-7245642 Share on other sites More sharing options...

How olds the diff, could be getting play in it and you're hearing the slop as it goes from forward to reverse and back again Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431233-mugabetown-whoretownin-at-its-worst/page/768/#findComment-7245680 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ants Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I don't know about Cusco. What I do know is that most 1.5 / 2 way jap diff tend to be a bit tough and clunky (friction plates) With helical there is none of that and therefore is just smoother and runs quieter Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431233-mugabetown-whoretownin-at-its-worst/page/768/#findComment-7245802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneakey pete Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Diffs are a bridge i'll have to cross at some point soon-ish i think. You'll have to re get your exemption won't you? Also, I have a hard decision to make. GC hinterland or Mt Nebo Up tambo, down tambo, up Oreilleys... ah f**k this roadworks and the 1 lane road, back down Oreilleys, up tambo, down tambo... Stopped in at Cedar creek on the way back down too, i think i'll have to bring boardies and a towel next time. If I had today off I would come with you Pete I'm not sure my car's good enough to be seen with yours (once you get it finished at least!)

I'm not sure my car's good enough to be seen with yours (once you get it finished at least!) probably one of the most underated mods you could do IMO. Will do front one too after my bank account recovers. Zac will be busy. Well she is kinda finished. I'm even taking it with me to work FTM. Just need to respray rear bar. My car would be fine with yours or any other Nissan.
