Take it back to the shop. 75-miles is plenty for break in. Could be anything from a poor install, to a worn pinion or axle bearings....which should have been changed during the install.I had a Ford racing 3.73 installed in my 1990 notch and when I'm off the gas going around corners the rear end is howling like crazy. I have only driven it about 75 miles since the install. Do I give it more break in time or get it back to the shop?
Thanks, the guy that done the install told me he did not like the bearings that came with the kit so he used the old ones. That kind of threw me off.
I would blast this guy as Mike said, no reason those bearings should have been put it. I would seriously be questioning the rest of the setup in the rear as well...You need to kind of throw the guy off a bridge.
He more than likely cheesed because he didn't want to go through an extra necessary step. It's not easy to get those bearings off, and I'd bet that was the real reason they're still there, not because he didn't "like" the new ones.
Yeah, It's probably too late now even if he did go back and replace the bearings that he "didn't like". Besides, if that's his work ethic, it's probably his gear setup that's making the noise, in addition to the fact that he didn't do what he should've.I would blast this guy as Mike said, no reason those bearings should have been put it. I would seriously be questioning the rest of the setup in the rear as well...
Is this an actual shop, or are we talking shade tree mechanic here?Thanks, the guy that done the install told me he did not like the bearings that came with the kit so he used the old ones. That kind of threw me off.
