I have been told by many over and over again....don't put anything else in the rear but FRPP gears. Anything else and the chances of you getting the dreaded gear wine go up.

FRPP is the only way to go just as Slamson00 says. Anything else will just make a lot of noise and they get really annoying going down the road.

New Old stock Ford Motorsport if you can find them for the reason that Rice Punisher stated, some of the newer Ford Racing gearsets are made by Motive!

I highly recommend these, kinda shame to put them somewhere that you can't see them...

If some FRPP gear sets are coming through now sourced from Motive, I would wager they had to redesign their gears to comply with FORD'S standards.

Ford has been doing everything right lately I seriously doubt they are going to allow compromised quality on anything with the Ford name on it.

Just my opinion no proof available.

I would still trust FRPP for gears.

Motive 4.10's have had issues in our shop with whining more often than not that's why New old stock Ford Motorsport is the way to go..Try suppliers that have been in business for many years like Downs, Powered by Ford etc..

I had to try two sets of the FRPP gears to get the whining to stop. The first set kept changing backlash after you would drive it for some reason. The second set went in great with no issues.
