When my car is in gear and load is on it a whirring noise happens when i put in the clutch the noise stops... could it be my tranny and diff oils need changing or is it a bearing..?

Sounds more rear of the box then, 1st off check driveshaft alignment/phasing, sight along the UNI joints they should be in a perfect straight line
lol i said differential not engine broskadipitus....bioskyline;1663338 said:

Um No - OP stated that the noise stops when he puts in the clutch... throw-out bearing only carries a load when you disengage the clutch (push in pedal)
the noise doesnt change when i change gears it is wheel speed related im still wondering about the mid bearing or differential now... does a mid propeller shaft bearing do this?
also keep in mind that it only makes noise when when accelerating let off the gas and the noise quiets down quite a bit... is it easy to change diff oil?

Check to make sure the drive shaft uni joints are in line and the carrier bearing for excessive play like IJ stated.
the driveline is straight and the ujoints have no play in them... im gonna change my diff fluid... how do i tell if its lsd or not... jack up the car and see if both wheels spin the same way? is there a code to look for? pooptypewpty paints?
Yup, thats how ya do it. Both spin the same way = LSD opposite= open.
I think that theres a sticker that says "use LSD oil only" by the fill plug. I think.

they both spin the same way, and YES the uni joints are ALL IN LINE!!! kinda wierd how this is a non turbo with a lsd..
im still wondering if it is the fluid being worn out that is making the noise

If U haven't changed the fluid in awhile, it's worth being done anyways. Yes, easy... Undo the FILL plug 1st... then the drain plug. Make sure to add the LSD additive or search to find which brand/type has worked for others (w/o additional "Ford" additive from Toyota). You will need a long funnel-hose, or pump.
Change fluid, see if any improvement, continue to troubleshoot if not.

i changed the fluid with 80w90 and the positrac LSD additive... no change... i looked all over for similar noises and it sounds just like what a bad pinion bearing sounds like.... is it easy to fix. should i just buy a new diff? does that conclusion make sence?.. shibbity boppity boop? im also thinking my clutch pack might be worn to hell too.... a good used LSD for our cars are not that expensive...
