Just finally putting some miles on the car after restoration. 1970 dodge challenger t/a clone, i put a Dana60 from strange in it. I have a weird rubbing sound coming from the rear end when doing tight slow turns ( left and right). So i got home and jacked the back up to have a look and I notice the rear diff what super hot! couldnt even keep my hand on it for 2 seconds. I only went maybe 40 miles at highway speed. Is this normal to be that hot?

I am concerned because i want to take it for a long drive tmrw (6hr road trip) Should i be concerned?


should be warm but not hot. New gear you have to drive a few miles then let it cool down a few times i thought
