Default Just got my gears and t-lok installed

I just got my gears and t-lok installed for $385...even though i had all the parts...i think i kinda got ripped off...but anyway he said a should wait a while and take it easy on the car cuz of the gears before i start goin fast... so when can i start punchin it? and also since i got the car back i hear this rattling under my car when i drive...is that the gears or is somthing wrong....the rattling sounds like 2 pipes scraping

punch it now IMO.

i had 4:10's put in and just romped on it from the get-go.. i really dont see how gears could "break in" i figure either they will work, or they will break. but going gently for the first however many miles aint gonna make a difference.

dunno bout the tlok

EDIT: 385 isnt bad i suppose, i paid 300 for just gear install.
And if it is making wierd noise, TAKE IT BACK.

where is the rattling coming from?

I didn't take it easy on my gears when I got them installed. If you think it's making a bad noise take it back. Although I think when your trying to listen for a sound, you will find one to hear.
