The front diff on my K6 is very noisy. Removed the center diff & driveshafts. Removed the diff completely out, no cover, just the pinion. Smooth & no noise & bearings seem good no play. Put the diff back in with no cover & spin the front & it's very noisy. Like the mesh is wrong. No shim on outside of diff bearing against the bulkhead. New rebuilt composite diff, properly shimmed to manual spec. I bought this K6 used & found it took a hit on the left front after a teardown. The hinge pin was warped so I replaced all of them. The A arms are new RPM that came on it suggests it was wrecked & arms replaced & sold as is. The bulkhead must be warped causing the noise. The diff is not tight in the bulkhead & I've spun it w/o the front driveshafts & it's still there. Warped bulkhead from a crash?? Thoughts??
