u know the gear ratio? Could also be an axle bearing or the carrier bearings. most times if there is a howling or grumbling, it is bearings.

Re: rear end howl
no clanking just a howl that gets worse with tire speed no difference on or off throttle no change while cornering

This is too obvious but necessary to ask. Are both tires the same diameter? If not, the spydies or slippies would put up a hell of ruckus after a while. And then of course after a while there would be the BIG BANG. I think the news is that u will have to pull the cover and strain the gear oil and look see what is swimming around in there. BEAR PAWS!!
