On an open legged diff, I doubt it. The only thing that comes to mind is
the side movement (tolerance) being a little out of whack - only way to
check though is to measure it in the diff.

I haven't heard any noises from the rear end at all. I also haven't opened
the
dif yet to check it out, I changed it out to Mobil 1 at probably 15k and
it's
been in there since (60k now). It's a open dif 9.25.
Don't suppose excessive tire spin would lead to it? I have a hard time
getting
traction in the rain which leads to spinning if I don't feather the
throttle.
Only 15k on my highly rated tires and I can't get traction in the rain..
