Re: can a 12 bolt be made quiet? Yes, if your gears are setup properly they can be silent. It's a little harder to be silent with a 4.10 or greater. Anything under 3.90 should be dead quiet.
Re: can a 12 bolt be made quiet? No it can't. It's impossible. Never.
Unless you let someone besides Moser set it up. The kid working at your local Mc Donalds drive-thru window can probably do it better than them...

Re: can a 12 bolt be made quiet? I've heard that GM Superior gears for the 12 bolt while not being the strongest are the most quiet, I have Richmond 4.33's in my 12 bolt though

Re: can a 12 bolt be made quiet? I have installed over 42 set of gears in the past year and all of them are silent. It's all in the pinion depth and you need to have the right back spacing too.
Re: can a 12 bolt be made quiet? i have a moser 12bolt and it has been quiet from day one. i've had no problems and this thing is almost as quiet as stock.people told me lonch it at 5,500rpm's afew times and it will get noisy,well it's still quiet.its got to be all in the gear setup and moser did it,i never checked it before installing it.

What would you charge me to set up mine? It may be worth a trip to KY. I have one local guy that will try this friday. All others here say its impossible to make quiet.
