I have an m9 with 3:73, 1k on it and it whines from 40+mph. When no gas is applied it stop and when I give it good amount of throttle it stops, I know I probably need gear adjusted.
Here's the kicker, the noise randomly goes away and slowly gets louder, it's random I let off gas then apply and it's quit then other times I apply it and it is whining again....I'm so confused, my brother said might be ujoint, I have stock driveshaft with conversion ujoint.
Can anyone chime in?

Holy ****. I knew I was not the only one. Bro check out this vid from our Army dude friend, Haans249. As soon as I let off, the noise goes away. Apply gas, it is back. The vid says it all.

Yea, but does yours go away randomly? I'll let go of gas than press it and it's quite like no whine nothing then I'll let off and press gas again and it returns...so weird, I'm going to have to get gears adjusted, I find it bs it came from moser like this! Another $500 to get something fixed that shouldn't need to be fixed!
I got tranny problems as well I might fix that first before I can't drive at all, the whine I can deal with it's bad but not horrible.

Gear whine doesn't always mean the gears weren't installed correctly. You can have what appears to be two identical sets of gears installed the same, and one set will have gear whine and the other set won't. Bob

Just sucks Bob, we don't have a lot of money to go through gear sets and find out if they will be noisy or not.

Any aftermarket set of gears can make noise in this type of vehicle. What brand of gears were used on the build? We like to use the Motive Performance or the US Gear. We have found there is less of a chance of gear noise and if there is gear noise that it is minimal.

What gear oil are you running and where you filling it up to? I had the same problem on a new rear. switched to the 85 140 lucus oil and has toned down some. Its not near as bad, and I can cut it out with the radio on low now and I have 4.11 gears. Give it a shot man.. mine was just as loud as yours if not louder. still having problems with the wavetrac a bit but.. not sure what that is. It likes to pull to the right under power but if I get on it at a stop both tires spin.. so it might just be how wavetrac works..

My rear did the same thing pulling to the right. I changed the shocks and it went away. How old are your shocks in the back?

Richmond do tend to be louder than Motive and US Gear. Bob
