Default 10 bolt howling on deceleration after gears

Had richmond 4.10s put in. Guy swears up and down its all lined up correctly. However when I searched it seems it isn't "normal". Maybe a lil bit of noise would be normal over the stock gears but this is more then a little.

So question is. How many miles on it before its ruined? Can I just have them re-aligned.

Richmond gears are typically noisy anyway...so they may be right.

My opinion is it is noisey .., which is not correct ... Unlikely a gear failure will occur...
Seized pinion bearings possible ...but noise will get a lot worse before that happens ..... Carrier self destructing or center pin brakeing is more likely than a gear catastraophy ...
