1st off do you know where the sound is comming from?

If not then you need to start buy applying a small amount grease to the gears if you have not already done that. You should also check to make sure you replaced the yellow plastic bushings on the rear suspension arms off of the stock rear arms (the red rear suspension arms dont come with them). If those were transfered I would next lube the axles. If you car still makes the sound you final step would be to lube the drive shaft. I think that just about covers it. Let us know what happens and if anything I posted here helped.

ps. Dont worry about the buck if what I said works.
