sorry for the late reply, if the brakes are adjusted properly and lock tabs are in place the only thing I can suggest is to double check the diff oil you are using. as i remember a friction modifier had to be added. if the differential is limited slip which as i recall it is, using straight gear oil without the modifier will cause those parts to groan when sliding against each other.
