I would not have thought so but you never know.

The car is an 85 with an 85 diff and 1985 drive train transplant so there is
no compatibiliy issue.  There wouldn't have been a need to drain the diff
fluid when they did the drive train transplant.

I dont see how, maybe it was just a coincidence, or maybe they drained the
diff for some strange reason and did not fill it back up?  Did they swap the
diff as well to match the 85 engine/trans?  Thats the deal is the 85 has
different diff to go with the different trans.  If so, swap your old one
back in.  Dont you have a parts car?  Cant remember but if so just swap it
out.  I had a BUNCH of diffs but I sent them all to the crusher.

That describes it perfectly.  What I can't figure out is that if I have a
bad diff why this develped AFTER the drive train transplant.  I had no
whining noise at all before this (the differential was NOT changed with
the
engine/transmission).  Could a replacement of the drive train transmission
cause the diff to "stress out"?

  If its a worn out diff it will not whine that much if at all when you
put
it in neutral because there is no load on it.  Even going down the road
if
you give it throttle it will whine, let off it will quiet down because
there
is no load on it.

Went out for another drive.  Noise pitch varies with engine

abates.


Then it has to be in the front of the transmission, or before
the transmission.

That rules out drive shaft, carrier bearing, differential, axle,
wheel bearings, hub caps, and so on.
