Default quick question!

How bad (on a scale of "whatever" to "needs to be fixed asap") is it if my posi is making a noise when making right turns?

When's the last time you changed the diff. oil?

IMO, try posting in the Gears & Axles section for better results.

did you just change the fluid? (if so, you may need to add friction modifier to the diff, if it is an Auburn diff)..

Also, can you provide more info? no one is gonna be able to help you with vague information.

I would say it needs addressed pretty quick. The kits they sell at WS6store will fit your rear end.

No.

Bought a used 10 bolt, makes a bit of a squeaky noise when turning right only.

Any idea what the culprit could be?
