Default 4:10 gear help

I have decided to go to the 4:10 gear ratio I wanted to ask who has the best price and if any of you guys have used them? word of mouth in this business means a lot.

Also anyone getting gear noise at higway speeds? I have heard a few people say that some MFG are ptroducing a loud gear noise.

Thanks

Forum vendor DTE did mine along with the hardened output shaft and I am completely happy with them. They have since improved on their offerings and options. I have never heard a complaint regarding their products or services. Really a class act and a great vendor. Talk to the owner, Phil. He is always happy to answer questions and educate you in DTE's methods and products.

As Patches stated above, we include specifically engineered internal components of our own proprietary design as standard features now where they once were options, in an effort to provide our customers with the most durable, purpose built Corvette differential available. We are also the only tuner to my knowledge that has successfully converted the 2-series carrier for HP use with any gear ratio the user chooses and we accept either version as a core.

Give us a call if we can be of service. Have a great day!
