need help frpp 4.10 gear issue ?

ozan169 · December 21st, 2006, 03:40 PM

just had my frpp 4.10 gears put in and there is a whining noise coming from the axel. the only time i hear the whining noise is when i take my foot off the throttle and if the cars doing over 30mhp under 30mhp there is no noise. when i put my foot to the floor it drives lovely no noise from axel

what can it be ????

thanks

The tolerences are off, sounds like the backlash but don't hold me to that. You need to take it back to the installer and have them redo it. It shouldn't make noise during coast.

Bring it back for sure. I had my 4.10's put in last week and they make no noise at all. Just as quite as the 3.55's that came out.

hey with 4.10's what is your crusing speed at 75mph with 18's?

MustangMatt · December 21st, 2006, 08:13 PM

75 MPH I am around 2500-2600. 2900 at 80MPH. Just got back from a road trip, 84mph the whole way and averaged 21.3 MPG

Yep - definitely an install issue. FRPP gears are among the quietest gears you can get. But a crappy install can still make them howl.

FireryDriver · December 22nd, 2006, 06:45 PM

how much did it cost you guys to get them installedl?

MustangMatt · December 22nd, 2006, 09:25 PM

$275 install at the Ford Dealer

Sir what was the cost of the gears them selves? Ya think Ford Racing would be a good choice?

MustangMatt · December 23rd, 2006, 05:09 PM

I used the Ford Racing gears. From what I am told those are the gears of choice. I believe I paid $325 for the gears, which is a little high, but that is what happens at the Stealership.

FireryDriver · December 23rd, 2006, 05:23 PM

matt I got an estimate from my dealership...$850 for labor alone.....like I'm gonna pay more than the gears and install kit cost combined just for the install.

MustangMatt · December 23rd, 2006, 05:26 PM

Mine gave me a very high price to start, then I told them about the pirces I read about on here and they lowered it for me. You should try the same thing. I know that Ford Labor billing for the job is 3 hours and they shouldn't charge you more then that.

FireryDriver · December 23rd, 2006, 05:46 PM

yeah he tried to say that it would take 8hrs and 30 minutes at $100 an hour. I was not buying that at all. So you bargained the stealership down right?

MustangMatt · December 23rd, 2006, 06:24 PM

Yup, just told them about the prices I saw on here and they went down right away
