    a little gear noise any remedies?

    i replaced my front and rear gear to a set of liberty 4.10 gears and replaced all of the bearings, racers and seals. i have a little noise or wine . i set the lash with the proper tools and right grease smear pattern. i heard that aftermarket gears can be a little noisey but is there any fluids or different gear oil people have used to help keep their gears cooler and less noisey???

    well to tell you the truth most after market gears a going to whine. i just recently changed my gears too. i went with oem 410s and i am glad i spent the extra cash for them no whine or noise at all.
    dont think you can change oil to make them whine less it just how there going to sound.

    take the covers off and check your pattern again. Sounds like you got it wrong or just bought some single cut cheap quality gears.
