Rear End Howl

BrockTMK2 · 08-01-2006, 05:11 AM

yeah, i recently bought a 1985 SOUP, and the rear end is howling like a mother f**ker. so im thinking of putting a different rear end in. i dont want that posi trac, one wheel spin bullsh*t. i searched high and low for info on a differential from an MK2 that didnt have posi. but i cant find anything.

im pretty sure that the 1982's have a different rear end then the others. but im not sure 100%
could someone shed some light on my situation here please
thanks

Well if you dont want just one wheel to spin then you want a limited slip rear(AKA a posi)..Almost all of the p-types(with fender flares)came with a limited slip..All of the 82-86.5 supras,Celica GT's and most cressidas share the same rear diff..Now you say that it is howling..Does that mean that it is just howling through the chassis and body like a tire noise that 4X4's normally have or a grinding sound..If it just putting out a howling then you should just check out the bushings on the rear crossmember and other suspension peices..If it is grinding then it is definitly the rear diff then..

k cool man, i had my terms mixed up. yeah its like a howl not a grind. its almost like when wind blows through your house.. that sound, and increases its pitch as the RPM go higher. but thanks for the info.
