Default Re: R&R Rear Axle

Yes. From what I have read for the past year on this issue, early H3 builds (before aug 05) had this issue. It was caught and corrected after mid Aug. 2005.

Hmm, me the expert on this? Nope.

Understand that I don't own one yet, and only have info that I have read here for the past year. If you do a search on "lapping compound" you'll get about 10 threads. There is some good/useful info there. I think the issue affected both base and adventure rear differentials (if there is a difference between the two, dunno), and I believe if can affect 4sp (auto) and 5sp (man) transmissions. A couple of the replys in those threads are from the GM connected folks on this forum. So, very helpful and, what I feel, very reliable, honest, no B.S.
Some threads talked about a rear diff whine/noise that could start after 500-600 miles, but if I remember, i think most, who had the issue, started...I can't remember, after 1000 or 1500 miles. Or it could be more. Sorry I don't remember. Hope that helps.
