Default 9 inch problem?

I know there have been similiar threads on this but here goes anyways. I have the moser 9" with truetrac diff. It seems to make noise on left or right turns, like a whineing noise but only when really going slow. Also when i slowdown almost to a complete stop(i can notice this in neutral quite a bit) it makes a thumping sound and a few other strange noises. Is it not normal at all for the truetrac to make noises? I figured it was just part of the rear setup.

Did Moser assemble it? You need to double check and see if the driver side axle is running into the washer inside the diff. This has been a common with the preloaded Turetrac's and Moser has not allowed enough clearance for that unit. I have seen exploded axle bearings cause the backing plate is loading the bearing.

Yes i ordered it from DLS and its a moser unit. Had a feller in a shop around town here install it for me and now its makeing what i described as a whineing noise on turns, and it's very "creaky" sounding over speed bumps and when i slow down etc.
