What are the pins?

davidlandy:
could be the centre diff - try jacking up the back end of the motor and spinnin the wheels to check.

*excuse my ignorance*
What am i looking/listening for?

davidlandy:
with the back lifted you can spin the one rear wheel and see if the other rotates in the opposite direction - if it does then your rear diff is ok

paul_humphreys:
A friend of mine had this happen, turned out he had done BOTH diffs. His back one went first the extra strain made the front go as well.

Replacement back axel and another front diff.

You can weld the hole up when the diff is out.
