Message	requesting anyone with the R230 4.10 replacement gears to give (as objective as posssible) feedback in reference to any gear whine/noise. How about a scale of 1-10? With 1: completely quiet, 5: I can hear it but I can live with it", 10: "I want my fuc$ing $$$ back!...I can't hear myself think". Please include any modification to the subframe (spacers; polyuerethane, delrin, or solid bushings). I have talked to about 1/2 of the folks that have installed the 4.10s, with an idea of the number of people who have had noise problems, and those that have had none. For my own purpose of interest (and for anybody who may be considering buying some, but are concerned about the potential for noise) I'd appreciate objective feedback, so that I/you can get additional info. Thanks, Mark
