RE: Ford Racing Gear Warning
Do you guys think I should give it a few days to see if they will "wear in" and get quieter or just cut my losses and change them out?

Yup, I knew right away you were going to say you got the M FRPP gears as soon as I got the sense of a complaint... Very well known issue...

They'll never stop whining, and neither will you, so change them ASAP.

Trust me.....drove over 100 miles to get mine into the hands of modular depot.
ALL DAY INSTALL
Never could get them to stop and it was not MD's fault.
They got a tad bit quieter, but they still whine.

RE: Ford Racing Gear Warning
You should have read the forums and pay attention. I have seen posts on this issue for at least the last 6 or 8 months, and probably before that too..
