i also heard that putting saw dust or a graphite like from an arts and crafts store will quite it down... i might trade it in . this is my second z28 and both have fucked me up with breaking down i thought it would be different so i just want the sound to go away. its fucked up on my graduation n now i cant drive it on my birthday which is today by the way. so im pretty angry at chevy for making my car well shitty...

Ummmmm no do not put sawdust or graphite in your rear end. Do you want to mask the problem or fix it? Not to mention I highly doubt any of those would work. More than likely the sawdust would get trapped in the bearings and cause them to overheat and you'd be looking at a lot more problems than what you started with.
$375 is not bad considering the bearings themselves cost around $100. You might as well do gears at the same time since it is the same process. The gears shouldn't whine when he rebuilds.

yea thats what i was thinking. but yea i think i might actualy sell the car after i do this. but do you think it will wind if i do not change the gears? because right now its just a bearing wind and it does not do it on deceleration.

My stock 10 bolt with the 3:42s whined. Put 4:10s in the 10 bolt, they whined after a few passes at the track. Got a Strange 12 bolt w/4:11s and they scream. Doesn't bother me.

to me though it sounds like its getting worse like it doesnt do it on deceleration but only on acceleration its realy annoying. and i might be selling the car soon so i dont think anyone would buy it when it whining like that.

Since you are thinking of selling the car and since many on this forum have changed their entire third members for upgrades maybe someone here will sell you a used, quiet one and you can swap the whole damn thing out for under $375.
Maybe.

so $2300.00 , How much to install it, does it use your old brakes and traction control, a.b.s. etc.?
Does that include gears, already in it. Where would I go to buy one?
Yes I'm writing a book!!
