Re: Whinning Diff

>I am having problems with my '86 4kq whinng under load which
has me diagnosed as a diff bearing. It's not horrible but noticable 
without
the radio on between 35-60 in 5th mainly. Also, with the center diff 
locked
it whines under deceleration but only whines under acceleration with the 
diffs unlocked.My first question...Does anyone else have this 
problem?????
2nd: How long will this tranny last??

---- snip ---

My VW Quantum Syncro has had the same problem you describe since we 
bought it a year and a half ago.  We have put more than 30K miles on it 
since with no change in the sound and no failure.  It is my 
understanding that so long was it is filed with oil, we could be 
listening to it for years to come.
