Sorry guys Ive lost the plot here banging on irrelevently about single rail boxes when all the time its a Sprint one.<br>
Could well be as Alun says...<br>
Could also be the prop center bearing? <br>
Sprint boxes are normally hard wearing and dead reliable and as Alun found out will even survive a bit of dry running. Try all the other bits first.<br>
A good technique is to jack up and securely support the rear on axle stands then listen for noises thru the gears.<br>
