    4.10s in and making noise!

    k ill prolly do that. shouldnt getting the backlash right move it toward the toe more though? so i guess ill try a smaller pinion shim and see if that gets me a better pattern

    4.10s in and making noise!

    i hope not!! lol. i thought if the flat part was on the bottom it meant the pinion was too close? idk im looking at some patterns and seems like the combination of drive/coast pattern according to this chart im looking at says i have correct pinion depth just need to adjust backlash, i hoping...

    4.10s in and making noise!

    im using multiple shims, i tried using factory shims but there was so little backlash i couldnt even rotate it lol. but i dont know how easy it would be to add a shim to each side since it was pretty hard to get the shims i have in there in, they are the same thickness as stock(0.555) so...

    4.10s in and making noise!

    yea it clunks when i shift, and no i didnt preload the bearings, weird i was just reading about gear swaps more a couple minutes ago and just now heard of preloading carrier bearings lol. all i did was measure the stock shim thickness and got my new shims that thick added together. so im going...

    4.10s in and making noise!

    thats what i did to get the bearing on lol, but i didnt use a bag you think i messed the bearing up? i sprayed it with wd40 alot after haha i suck at doing that, one reason i got new pinion bearings is because i messed the old one up so bad taking it off of the original pinion lol so you...

    4.10s in and making noise!

    oh just to clarify i didn't just install the new pinion assuming that it was same as the stock, i measured the head thickness with a caliper and used shims to make the new pinion head thickness the same as stock or thats what i thought the MHD method called for. but when i get time im going to...

    4.10s in and making noise!

    kk thx for the imput, in a couple of days i plan on doing the paint check, and recheck the backlash. and the car was level while i filled it, but i filled it until it started running out so there might be too much oil. and i also marked the driveshaft. thx for the help!

    4.10s in and making noise!

    the gears i used are FRPP 4.10s, i was following that same article 1987stangman lol. the gears were brand new and i used the crush sleeve that came with the gears. can gear whine mess up the transmission? i was talking to this one guy at work today, and he was telling me it could mess up my...

    4.10s in and making noise!

    no i didn't do that, thats the first thing im going to do when i get enough time to take it back apart. stupid me, i guess i should have done that after the install to make sure it was correct, was thinking if everything was set up to spec i wouldn't need to do that. thx for the help guys...

    4.10s in and making noise!

    oh, i guess ill have to do that. Is the car ok to drive for now until i have time to do that, or should i just not drive it until it is whine free? thx for the help!

    4.10s in and making noise!

    i just finished installing my 4.10s and drove about 5 miles and they are whining, mostly in 4th and 5th gear while cruising a constant speed. i installed them myself(first time) and i used new pinion bearings only, set the rotational drag at between 20-26 inch pounds, set the pinion depth so the...

    rear end oil

    i have a question regarding filling the rear end, if the car is on jackstands in the back will it still have enough oil when it starts coming out of the fill hole? i put a 4 ounce bottle of friction modifier in and about 1.8-1.9 quarts in and it started running out, just wondering if its enough...

    I'm torn

    i think slp makes an x-pipe that you can remove parts from or add piping too for LTs or shortys, i know there is another company that makes a pipe like that but i cant remember what it is.
