Moser 12 bolt Noisy??

i finally broke down and ordered a 12 bolt for my 87. I ordered it with 3.42 gears and a tru tracker posi. I asked the salesman if the gears were going to be quiet...as my 9 bolt whines..... he said "i'd hear it".....does anybody have one of these? do you actually 'hear it"? is it loud? pat

Re: Moser 12 bolt Noisy??

Most aftermarket gear sets are made from harder steel than factory (good/bad). This can create more noise. You may hear a drone or light wine, but it should be nothing near the realm of annoying or.unbearable. my moser 9. Makes a little.noise, but the exhuast and undercarpet sound deadining mask most of it
