[QUOTE="Wraith, post: 1009001, member: 12172"] I purchased my '99 in the fall of '01 from a used car dealership. Of course, after about a week, I ran into some friends of the previous owner who told me how abused the car was. I have since replaced the transmission and am now rebuilding the engine. But along with these problems is another one that I haven't been able to figure out. About a week after I purchased the car, the rearend starting making a loud popping noise at low speeds (15mph and under). At first it was just occasional, but then it gradually became worse. Finally it just started sounding like popcorn. However, it only made this noise after I had driven the car for awhile and everything became warmed up. I took it to an SVT certified dealership and a "mustang specialist" who checked it out. He told me there was a pit worn in the gear but that it should work fine. So I had him put the 4.33s back in. After a couple of months the noise just bugged the hell out me and had the gears replaced with 4.10s. But lo and behold, the noise is still there. Does anybody have any idea what this might be? There is a differential specialist about 1 - 1 1/2 hours away that might have an idea, but I can't drive a seized engine. Thanks for any ideas. :shrug: [/QUOTE]
