The plan is to blow it all pack apart, add a .004" shim to the pinion, reset the carrier to get .008" backlash and redo the pattern to send to Richmond. I have been doing some research and quite a few people say the Excel Gears by Richmond are quite loud in general. With that said, the noise this thing made at 40mph is the loudest high pitch squeal I can ever recall hearing...like a bad wind whistle on a leaky door x 1000.
