ok so here is a pic of her all washed up
[Linked Image]
now i have logged a few miles on the fresh engine
but driving i noticed a strange noise from the right rear
at first i thought the tire mite be rubbing but check and nothing.
it only does it when you take off and turn right.
does not do it when driving or taking off stright
when i took a sharp left a little to quickly one of the rear tires chirped a bit. so what should i look at first.
i never have dealt with rear ends.
rebuilit engines. breaks. front ends. a metro 5dp tranny
haha so just need some advice at what i should check first
plan on draining and refill gear oil. any suggestions

Speculating based on your description...but its kimda sounds like the LSD is getting a bit grabby...

Just do a bunch of full circle turns in a parking lots, alternating directions. This should take care of a sticky LSD. Also, check your axle oil level.

copy that will do.
pavment or figure eights in gravel
oh and just popped the block heater out of the block
on the first drive on the freeway
fixed that and put new radiator cap on
figured cap didnt let off pressure and those block heaters are a weak point , but did not over heat, but good time to retorqure head bolts

Good point on the gravel vs. pavement. Pavement will certainly provide more uniform grip, gravel would have some give.
