    New Gears Howling on Deceleration

    Id check that the carrier shims went back on the correct sides and such. Did you use the same pinion shim that came out? Did you or someone else swap the shim and pinion bearing over. Most times FRPP gears are bang on at re-assy. How'd you set the pinion preload??

    95 GT Vert T5 3.08s to 3.55s?
