You also told me that Motive used crappy Richmond gears and they dont properly set up the rears in the factory! Now you have used better gears and had a local shop set it up "properly" and it still whines just as loud. To me something is not adding up. It will be hard to sell a 12bolt that is not properly setup or that has a $hitty set of gears in it.

How about popping off the rear end cover and putting that while grease on the gear and turning your wheels? At least then you can see the gear wear pattern and that might help you in telling if they are setup correctly?

I purchased Motives because someone recommended them, they were made in the US but have switched production to china in the past few years and gone down hill. Its not nearly as loud after I put it thru a few heat cycles loudest at about 50 still tho.
