Default Question about F350 gears.

I just finished it tonight and was wondering if ya'lls gears were kinda loud too? Do they "break in"? They're not grinding, just a little loud.

Anyhow, I just didn't want to tear it up already (that's what the rocks are for! ....so any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike.

Not "kinda" loud, louder than hell here.

It ain't no thang, normal for a Hi-Lift but the semi-truck 3-speeds are much quieter.

I've only been around/driven one, but it was pretty loud, even after a few hours run time.

Default Phew,,,

Thanks guys. This is the first one I've seen and wanted to be sure.

Figured it was typical of cast metal gears in a plastic housing.

Btw,, nice vid OIT .
