I've got Motive 3.73 gears, and I like them a lot. No gear whine at all.

I'm going to quote Chicane on this. He apparently knows his stuff and this is what he wrote a week ago:

1) Strange and USGear are the same company....two brands, same company.
2) There are multiple companies that have contracts with GM (and other OEMs) to fill the demand. Some manufacturers only make specific gear sets for certain differentials. For instance, Motive makes alot of the 8.5" gear sets...... USGear makes a lot of the GM 7.5 and Chrysler 9.25".....
3) Everybody (that doesnt actually make gear sets) packages gearsets from other companies as their own. With the exception of Auburn, Richmond, USGear and Precision. Motive produces some of their own their own and uses/re-packages gear sets from other companies. They are kinda the ***** of the industry.... they'll use any thing and package it as their own.... with the exception of their high performance line.
4) AAM doesnt supply any majority of ring and pinions for the OEM..... although they do supply a great majority of spline, shaft and slider gears for the transmissions side of the house.
5) SLP isnt a manufacturer, they re-package just about everything with the exception of some of their in house products.... like their headers."

I also determine that, for me, I'm going to go to US gear/Strange for my new 3.73 ring & pinion. For me, it is the best for the money. This is my opinion, hope it helps.

I got Richmond 4.10's for my 5.0 and when they installed them they had a perfect mesh pattern from the get-go, very impressed, not sure for F-bod though.
