    Exclamation Alittle whine from new gears?

    When i'm around 40-50 and slightly accelerating there is a whine from the gears. Is this normal or did I screw up. I put them in Monday and the whine is still there.

    If they've been in that long they'll probably always do it. You have something just a little off. Not sure I'd try to correct it but then again....maybe I would.

    what gears? richmonds?

    if whine as stated pull them out and reset the gears up

    whine shouldnt happen but have heard of richmonds whining when at spec
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    yeah I would get them reset. I had to get mine reset 3 different times because they kept making noise. Now they are quiet as heck
