Kraton rear end grinding.

[Kraton up]

My kraton started making a horrible grinding sound on the rear end when I would hit the throttle. I rebuilt the rear end and it was fine for about 15 minutes then it started making the same sound again. I'm wondering if anyone else has the same problem and how to avoid it?

Did you use shims?

Did you use shims?

Yes.

Could you have left a chunk of something in the gear box or in the differential? Also I noticed that one of the 4 screws on one diff housing was coming unscrewed and hitting another part, youcould check that too.

My guess you will have to go from one end to the other until you find something that is not right.

Did you ever resolve this? I'm having the same issue
