Well, I finally got time to break down my rear axle. For a couple of months, whenever I was driving down the road, i heard a "whining" noise. It got louder the faster I went. Well, when I pulled the axle shafts and dropped the 3rd member, this is what i saw. Check out the pics.

Anybody have any idea on what causes the teeth on the gear to become razor sharp??? Confusedcratchhe:

Tha only thing I can think of is pinion depth. I bought everything complete from Randy's R&P. No towing was involved, no 4 wheeling, and I changed the oil at 500 miles for the break in. Notice the little notches on the side of the ring

Your thoughts......
