each time rearend was sent back to lehman new one installed. one was howling bad, two started getting way to much slack one disentergrated while going down hyway
each time lehman sent complete rearend , to replace bad one it was under warranty each time. they are still going warranty any other problems even though 3 year warranty is up.
I believe that Lehman has EATON manufacture the rearend assemblies. Chinese parts have become mainstream and it is difficult to find USA manufactured and assembled hardware today.
This sounds like a pinion bearing(s) issue and maybe the pinion flange was not properly torqued or preloaded like Ol grey said. The rearend is flipped so that under acceleration load the front pinion bearing is taking the pressure and under deceleration the rear (larger) pinion bearing gets the load. If the preload or pinion is not tight, the nut will back off and cause a major catastrophic failure.
Loctite the pinion nut with RED loctite to avoid this failure.
