Message	It doesn't sound like you will ever be happy with this particular mod. I installed my first set of Leader Gears along with solid aluminum subframe and differential bushings. Thinking it was the bushings I pulled out the solid differential bushings and went back with OEM rubber. They were still deafening loud. Specialty Z installed a second set of Leader gears. With solid aluminum subframes and OEM rubber Diff bushings, it is still noisy, but only about half as bad as it was before. I enjoy the mod for what it does, and that is, it brings a smile to my face. My ears have no effect on the degree of smile when the car reacts so wonderfully to throttle input. Petz #3
