I'm having a problem with my 90 Eclipse GSX, it is 5 speed manual and has the LSD rear end. My problem is every time I'm coasting down hill I can hear this "chattery" noise as if something was loose. I can only hear the noise when I'm coasting downhill in gear but when I'm in neutral and coasting downhill I don't hear any noises. The car has almost 183,000 miles on it so Im very positive the rear end will need rebuilt. By watching the video do you guys think I will need a new a new Pinion? Im hoping it just needs new bearings, shims, and seals since I know TMZ sells the replacement parts.. Any input will be apreciated Thanks.

^^^ 4 bolt conversion would be a good upgrade and check the gear backlash before installing.

What flywheel and clutch do you have?
