Tranny or Rear End NOISE??? the car is making a bad whineing noise either coming from the rear end or tranny (im not sure) the more you put on the gas the more it whines but it doesnt whine in neutral at all?? i just had the rear end rebuilt also so im hopeing its not that. i tried to get a video to show but you cant hear anything over the exhaust... anyone have any idea? thanks for any help.

Yep. I'm guessing rear-end as well. In my experience, most transmissions (well, at least those of the 4L60E variety) are relatively silent. As far as the whine going away when in neutral, you are probably taking the load off the bearings, hence making the whine disappear. As an aside, what gears did you put in your diff? I have heard that some gears tend to whine more than others.
