Moser did send me a new gearset & install kit at no charge , but after paying over $3k for the complete setup, I paid nearly another $500 to reinstall new gears. They wanted me to remove the entire rear end, crate it up, and ship it back to them. That would be on my dime, and if was determined they were at fault, it would be fixed at no charge. That seemed ridiculouse to me, told them it would be cheaper & much less work to just buy new gears. So thats when they offered to send tme the gears & install kit. Its sucks, but its near whisper quiet now. Could have been worse, they could have just said F U, send the whole housing back or live with it. What setup are you running?

Sad! This is becoming the norm. Gears are hit or miss, most being manufactured overseas now. I recently set up a 12 bolt wavetrac with US GEAR 390s, perfect pattern, howled like no tomorrow. Switched to Yukon Gear and Im real happy with the outcome. Might be worth while to pay for dyno service on a complete rear or center section, perhaps that will insure a quiet rear.

The guys at moser laughed at me when I asked them who has the quietest gears, He basically said if you want quiet find a factory set. These are performance gears they will be noisy.
Good luck- Rich
