10 richmond suck they will break and make alot of noise. i personally new someone who carried a spare rear end with him becuase he was scared he was going to break the richmonds. and its a good thing he took the spare. we put it on one day on the way home from a race.

the reason he thought he was going to break them was because he had already broke one set and they sent him another pair for free. he had them put in and was allways scared of breaking them because they made so much noise.

 

I have nothing but good things to say about my strange gears. They whine a bit at throttle tip in, and might be noticeable with stock exhaust, but they are cut a bit different for a little extra strength. Not that it would make any REAL difference.

I vote for GM here!!

 

My GM 4.10s were baby-ed on the wear in cycle and they are very quiet now. Nice and gentle for 100 miles. Most people are surprised how quiet they are. Used Lucas Oil with Mobile in the differential with an Eaton Posi.
