yes, richmonds will make some noise... I have a set of Richmond "thick" 4.10s in my 12 bolt with a Detroit Locker (3 series carrier). They do whine some between 50-60, gets better from 60-65, and then disappears above 65.

Mine whine at pretty much any speeds except when going real slow. Once I get the exhaust on, I hope to hear a lot less of it. I dont mind the whine, the gears are so nice.
