USA standard gear

Has anyone used this brand before? I'm looking through a catalog for Randy's Ring & Pinion and the USA standard gear is quite a bit cheaper than the others offered and has the same warranty, but they state that they are not a quiet gear. I'm thinking with my flowmaster that's already loud, how much louder could these gears be?

I have Richmonds and they whine a bit too. not really that bad though. I have never heard of the brand you are looking at. I would also look at getting a rebuild kit and swap the bearings while your at it. i also didn't use a crush sleeve and went with the spacer. They say it is better for keeping the front seal from leaking.

the company i was looking at sells richmonds too but are out of stock. the gears i was looking at i could get for 165 and another 120 for the install kit with seals and bearings, loctite, gear marking compound, and complete shim kit.
