Also, does the noise change if you let off the throttle? If so, it might be the pinion bearing or just the gear mesh. You could try changing the differential oil to see if that helps.

to the throttle question no. I ran it up about 60 and slipped it into neutral and let it roll and the noise was still there until it got below about 40. To the high speed turning test, how sharp a turn do you suggest? enough to shift the balance or tighter?
