A set of Motives I set up were dead silent, until I changed the fluid. Metal chunks came out of the fluid, turns out the cheap Ford OEM case I had had some cracks and was brittle and spit out some metal, and fucked up my gears.

I recently bought a used rear (10 bolt) with 4.10s. And it supposedly only had around 6800 miles on it with no play in the pinion and had a very good looking wear pattern on the teeth. I put it in and it whines quite loudly, only noticeable really on a very light load from 50-65 mph (while maintaining speed). Can someone tell by this if there is something wrong seriously or perhaps if it's just setup up slightly wrong? I just want to know if it's going to go out on me soon or if it's just typical gear whine
