3.55 Gear Whine after had installed
Hello,
I have noticed when driving faster then 50 MPH I hear more of a high pitch whine. I am taking it back to the dealer that installed the gears. I got the FORD Racing 3.55 from American Muscle. If it whines only under a load ( acceleration) is that just shims? Or could the gears not be cut well? I am hoping it is just shims. It gets louder at 70 - 77 MPH and that is pretty much our HIGHWAY speed here.

Sorry I have not gotten back to this post. I took it back and had them re shim it. It is better but I still get a little whine. I don't think I should get any noise since they do come from the factory with 3.55's ( could be the gears though). But I can live with it. October 25th I start my install of a VMP GEN2 STG2 kit. Will be posting install pictures on that as well.
