I noticed you have aftermarket lower and upper control arms. I had my gears done before my suspension modifications and they were absolutely quiet. Once I added my lower controls I started noticing gear whine.

its called planning for the future.....if he gets a one piece DS or lowers the car, he will need them......no sense in spending a couple hundred now only to have to spend 250 later for new ones!

I was verifying that he was at stock ride height and was equipped with non-adjustable ca's, since that's the setup I'm running...I wasn't questioning why he would run non-adj's at stock ride height...I guess maybe my syntax and punctuation need some work...

I plan on non-adj LCA's and adj UCA. One point of adjustment vs 2 which could possibly lead to other issue's, and you shouldnt have to change the pinion angle once done unless you change ride height.

not saying you got the wrong one, but here's a link to the 75w140 rp...
acutally you'll have to click on "round quarts" on this link to view the gear oil (oops)...
