They do sell sound proofing material that sticks to the floor and you put carpet over top of it. Wow that would be a pain project. I have 373's and I get some whining as well. I also have a Lincoln Aviator that has a rear end whine. Both drive me nuts.

Lots of whine probably means that they were not installed properly. Several of my friends have 4.10 in there cars and the ones that took them to cheap shops have a lot of whine and the guys who took them to a reputable performance shops dont have any whine at all.

Also you can use a sound dampening product such as dynamat but all it is going to do is make it a little less noticable but it will not get rid of it completely and the stuff is not fun to install. Like I said earlier save yourself the trouble and get some one to look at those gears and make sure there installed properly. Also this will save you some weight since a product like Dynamat tends weigh a bit.
