    Default Mk3 supra rear end noise

    hey all
    I got a mk3 supra with the factory lsd. I had a diff shop change the diff gears from 4.5 to 4.1. Car now makes a sort of a fast knocking sort of noise that appears to come from the rear end. This occurs mostly at higher speeds 80-100km/h and only occurs on deceleration/coasting. There is only a slight high pitched whine type noise under acceleration and no noise when cruising.
    I think its the diff but the shop that put it together thinks its a wheel bearing?
    Has anyone got any idea what it might be?
    Any help greatly appreciated

    I took them for a ride in the car, was a bit difficult to hear coz of twin walbros buzzing, but he still thought it was a wheel bearing
