[Healeys] Rear end noise

Mitchell,  you better pull that one out and have a look. Setting up the gears is tricky and if not aligned properly wear will destroy them.

I have done this myself in the past and finally did one right. But now I take them to professionals, but those guys sometime don't know what they're doing/make mistakes.  Pulling the pumpkin should take you less than an hour on that car.  When you drain the oil you can look for shrapnel in the oil.

Experts,



I had the Lempert gear set installed in my 1966 BJ8  this year  put about 2000 miles on it.

I have a pretty loud hum at about 35-45 mph.........the hum only occurs when accelerating.....when you let off it goes away.

Can someone tell me what is causing it ?     can the new gears be readjusted if that's the problem?



Thanks in advance

Mitchell
