I'm told it's a direct swap. Apparently the only problem is that the ABS sometimes gets confused (probably has to do with the wheel speed sensors).

In exchange, you not only get less shock transmitted to the t-case (which should prolong it's life) but also the benefit of an LSD. Sounds like a good trade-off.

I'm pretty much used to the sounds coming out of my cars...but when you say "singing"...will it be completely obvious...or will it start quietly then get progressively louder?

Have you ever heard the sound of an LSD diff with bad bearings? It's pretty much the same sound: a loud whine under acceleration. Eventually, you get the whine even when the car is just rolling in gear. It's not subtle!

Did you put the wrong fluids in?? I spoke to Jon directly the other day and he said most of the problems are due to WRONG FLUID!!!!! Dont put anything else besides the Diaqueen LSD 90W for the rear diff also
