[QUOTE="Mach828, post: 13980497, member: 102965"] I was surprised by how much wear the gears see. I originally set my backlash very tight. After 10k miles and a lot of hard launches, the backlash has loosened up quite a bit. A buddy of mine had a shop install his 4.10s, and they were on the looser side of the tolerance. They were quite, but now after a year of wear we are going to have to take it apart and shim it to tighten it up. I'd say its better to be on the tight side and deal with some gear whine. If you can hear it whine, just make your exhaust louder. haha [/QUOTE]
