Mine was the same just for the rear axles, though it doesn't seem like it is as bad as your's, it seems like a tight gear mesh. I'm gonna run mine for a while and see if it seats in. The bearings on the pinion shaft are seated fully in the axle housing right? I used to bearings stacked on top of eachother to seat it in the houseing, seemed to work, but still got alittle noise. Idk.

make sure the pinion bearing is seated all the way in. It is a really tight fit. I had to take a pair of needle nose pliers and pull from the outside to get mine seated.  |

I had the exact same problem as you.... and it wasn't being caused by improperly seated bearings, anyway here was my solution Rough Rear Axel |
