i would expect you will find that your thrust bearing is dead the balls will have cracked and be split in half

1.put a new thrust bearing in it use AE black grease and put it on the screw

2.then take the plates and some 800 grit wet and dry paper and sand them till smooth on a flat surface using one of the out-drives to hold the ring.

3.clean all the parts in motor cleaner then put a tiny bit of the black grease on the out-drive where the ring sits. place the ring on top of this.

4.using eather ae stealth lube or the kit diff lube place it onto the diff ring quite thick.

5.then place the diff gear on top of this and put the balls into the holes.

6.repeat steps 3 and 4

7.put more diff lube onto the balls

8.place the other out-drive and diff ring on top

9. put in the spring, screw and nut and tighten till you cant turn the gear with the out-drives held still.

10. hold the one out-drive in a vice and get a dremmel on a low speed with the cotton cone shaped polishing bit in it press this into the other out-drive for 20 seconds turn the diff over and repeat.

11. tighten the screw 1/8th of a turn

12.repeat steps 10 and 11 once more

13 install diff in the car

14. ENJOY

i have been doing this for years it works great i would however recommend some new balls and plates before starting this too
