Ronald,

After I had my Jag-you-are rear end rebuilt by the somewhat famous Hoopers shop, I was warned that it would be noisey for awhile. On tight turns, it made some pretty scary clicks and clunks. After three years, it has gotten much quieter. It seems to work well and I guess it takes a while for the clutch packs to break in.

My gears do start to howl once in a while even now, especially at high speeds. Since the unit is bolted directly to the frame right behind the seats the noise is awful. The guy at Hoopers recommended that I separate it from the frame with rubber bushings or something. I don't think this is possible without affecting the handling of the car. So, I'll live with it.

Paul
