That sucks
This is amazing. Thank you!60 Series | Rubber Seals Australia

These guys. They sell every single seal for the entire truck
When I build diffs I use paint to mark any bolt that I tourqe down so I know I've done it even doing that I'll go back over and recheck tourqe.
If there is ever a next time. I’m doing that. Is there like an oil resistant paint you use? I just R&Red the diff. Bolt was tight -_-
And better safe then sorry at least you have the full floating rear axle now makes it a little easier to pull the diff.
perfect, thanks for the tip. Doing that from now on haha the peace of mind is nice but ill never get that time back haha
Second Amazon pair was a dud too huh?Ok Rear locker works now. Tcase still whiney.
The overall win is that i installed the rubber Rear coil spring isolator things from toyota and all of my rear end squeaking is now gone. Heck yes.
Since my amazon pod lights keep dying on my knuckles in the first day, i decided to get a little fancy and went with the new morimoto banger series. My truck isnt socal enough to rock Baha Designs, and these are brighter anyways. Figured the bulbs in my holley headlights work great and are morimoto so these should be great too
Yeah I couldn’t keep them working. They lasted longer than the first but one of them had loose internal wiring -_-
it was all the rubber pads
Damn, sounds like a quality control issue that needs to be resolved with them. I wonder how bad the internal solder joints are on them too if the wiring is slipping past their QA and making it out the door.Yeah I couldn’t keep them working.

Doesn’t whine on and off throttle? Like a high pitched whine that increases and decreases in pitch with speed?
HF2A with a part time kit sounds interesting. Have you done one of those on your builds? At this point I’m trying it all haha
Ok ok you were 1000% right on the rubber pads. I even took the plastic out and it’s not squeaking
Dude there’s another thread we were posting about but @Dubs2017 and I have been going through it with the transfer cases trying to get them to quiet down. Mine makes a weird kinda scratching noise under throttle and whines like crazy over 30mph. I’m about to be at a point to call it a loss and put a chain drive trans from a blazer on my 4l60. At least that one won’t be so loudDamn, sounds like a quality control issue that needs to be resolved with them.

As far as your transfer case whine, it makes sense. Partial throttle where the load on the gears is less than a coast or at throttle (in my head I refer to it as "neutral throttle") can make the gear mesh be barely in contact in the case. Mine makes a metallic growling noise above 30 MPH in 4 Hi when I'm at tha tneutral throttle point. If I give it a little gas or pop the clutch in and coast, it goes away completely. It was overall reduced a little bit by switching to AMSOIL. Their Manual Transmission Fluid is good for both GL4 and GL5 applications so I can use it in both my H55F and the tcase, which is good because my tcase slowly leaks into the tranny. This is after using both Royal Purple and Redline.
I suspect I'd been hearing that same gear mesh from the front diff too, but I haven't put it in 4 Hi since finally changing its fluid out for the AMSOIL Severe Gear that i run in the rear diff. Probably won't until the snow flies again next winter

This would definitely be interesting to see. Be great to be able to go that route by the time I need to pull all that apart to rebuild my H55F. The 1/3 synchro has been notchy for a couple years now but never gotten any worse, as long as I'm careful, so I've been trying to push it out as long as possible.
