Re: Custom Gearbox is very loud

How are you locating the CIMs? Since you say it seems that that is where the sound is coming from it is possible that the pinion to first gear spacing is the problem and all the others are fine. I would recommend loosening the CIM mounting bolts, then pulling the CIM away from the other gear (increasing the C-C distance by a hair) while someone else tightens the CIM mounting bolts back.
