Default NEED new rear-end!

Ok, so in the last couple of weeks, i've gone through 2 10-bolts. The first one went out maybe because it was old and had always been making noise and it was abused. However, I bought a rear-end from someone on a forum that had 4.11s in it and it was installed at a treadquarters (i dont have the time, place, tools, or help to do it myself). The rear-end with 4.11s lasted for 3 days and started making noises.

I need a reliable but affordable fix now because I haven't gotten any money back from treadquarters and dont know if I will.

My car:

2001 - WS6 - Stock RWHP


SUGGESTIONS? HELP?! Can the 10 bolt I just bought be rebuilt?

The 10 bolt rears just don't normally hold up in these cars if you have a six speed. With an automatic you stand a better chance of one holding up. This is the rear that I recommend using. http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com....html?item=145 Bob

just bc its making noise doesn't mean its gonna go out. If you abuse them before they are broke in they tend to whine (ask me how i know) Dropping the clutch hard will dictate a quick fatal death though.
