Well I have tried several things and just cant find the problem. 98 XJ classic D35 HP90 AUTO. Sound is coming from rear and sounds like chalk on chalk board squeeling when I go around corners and really bad when I parallel park in reverse. I have take the driveshaft out. Replaced both rear DS u-joints and re greased the slip yoke twice now. I have a tracloc LSD rear 35 and know that the used car dealer oil in the from but the rear is black so I dont know if he touched that. I know that I need special lube in the gear oil for the tracloc but dont know if this is my problem. Does this sound like my problem or is it a bearing or axel problem? Maybe a drum brake problem??when it rains my brakes lock up on my first stop real bad. I dont know what else to do and I want to get this fixed so I can get my lift bought but cant if I need a new rear!

:skull1: CO_crawler --------->BIG THANKS
 
My first thought is to pull the drums and check your brake pads.
 
Have sombody drive, and lay in the back with your head hanging out the hatch... listen to see if it's coming from the inner diff area or the outer brake area. Jack the rear end up and take the wheels off, turn the axle by hand and make sure it is spinning freely.
Take the drums apart and make sure both sides are ok.

If everything checks out, you start looking inside the diff to see whats causing the problem. Its a process of elimination like fixing anything else.

Dude You're a Tard!
Don't hang your head out of your XJ. What a Stellar Idea!!!
This is why the population of eastern Ohio continues to decline every year.

It's you're LSD clutch packs chattering. Add some limited slip modifier to the gear oil. 7 oz will do the trick.

holy mother of god that was some hilarious advice.
 
hmmm well should i try to decapitate myself before I go and add the friction modifier? I am located in MO so maybe I ought not to try that, too close to OH! Scary thoughts
 
LOL. No keep your head on. Just add the modifier and see if the clutch packs don't quiet down.
