Spent 5 hours Saturday completely setting up rear end again with all new TrueTrac, R&P, bearings, crush sleeve, etc. set up went great, and I drove the car for the first time Saturday night without a noisy rear end. Yay!
So, I made it out to the shop tonight, pushed the car back to the lift area, and up we go. Drumroll........
A brand new pinion seal that leaks. This is awesome! ...Now I get why you guys purchase those expensive pre built rear end units.
On a positive note the TrueTrac is quiet, and should do the job well.
The Borla XS mufflers surprisingly aren't as quiet as I had thought, and actually are just a tad quieter than the Flowmasters, but with much less drone. They do drone a very small amount, but it's very bearable, and allows you to actually hear your stereo. I like them! More later!
