I am trying to take a censes on all the users that have 4:56 gears in their trucks from Ron's Machine Service. I have 4:56's in my silvy that I received from Ron's Service, and they "whistle" at certain RPM levels, no other noises just a "whistle".It sounds kinda like air going through the mirror at warp speed. Has anyone else experienced this using Ron's gears, or is it all deep gears that seem to do this regardless of brand? Any feedback is appreciated
Iv used his 3.73s,4.10s,4.56s,4.88s with 3.42s currently in it. No noises from mine. Iv beat the hell out of em
I SEE how HEARING a noise like that might leave a bad TASTE in your mouth, but I FEEL you shouldn't worry unless it starts to SMELL!
^ It's not so much as a bad taste, it's just i have never heard of anything like that before in a rear. Ron says that they can be a bit "noiser" that smaller gears, but I just don't under stand the "whistle" lolQuote:

The USA standard gears claim to be a little noisy, direct from the manufactures mouth. That being said I've always heard if they are set up correct there should be no noise. I've heard of gears whining, mine do. Never heard of whistling gears. Are you sure they're are the cause of the noise?
I was just effin with you, senses (census)
HAHA, yeah I know, I dropped the ball on that one lol.....I fixed it shortly after hahaQuote:

^ I have heard both sides of the story, Some deep gears whine, some don't. I just hope my issue isn't serious :-/Quote:

Whine. Ive installed numerous brand name sets of 4.56 even from Rons and never
Heard a whine or whistle
Agreed, a good set of gears setup correctly shouldn't make noise.
Unless they are used then you may have noise when slowing down/coasting. Because setting up the mesh on the load side for best results, your decel side may be slightly off due to wear.
The gears were new from Ron, the setup on them was spot on, I have even changed the fluid in it with different weights, for general purpose's to see if the fluid was the culprit, NOTE: Mobil1 makes lots of sounds with an EATON Posi, must use plain jain cheap fluid for a no chatter rear along with the LS additive, and the conventional oil seems to net me the quietest results. But it is what it is.Quote:

^ I did speak with Ron about my concern, and he said that if I was still experiencing problems that he would take care of any issues with me. So Super huge thanks to Ron for his awesome customer support and satisfaction!!Quote:
