    Looking for a local shop to set up rear end

    I need to have my rear end gears gone over, someone installed them prior to my purchase of the car and I am getting noise and clunking. Does anyone know someplace that is good at this in the pittsbugh area. I am from Hopewell Twp. preferably on this side of the city, but does not have to be.
    thanks

    If the noise is a moaning, chattering, or clunking when you make slow turns, you may
    just need to add some friction modifier to your differential oil.

    Good on turns, high speed noises, and clunking on stops and starts. Feels like there is too much backlash between the gears. Thanks for the advice though.
