Ok, so heavy wheels, metal front bumper, brushless motor. I am happy, it can go down hill now without flopping. What a rig!
I did notice it might be a bit loud, it might be just me. There is a low chirp, do you guys think the pinion gear might need grease?
The mesh should be correct so I’m kinda lost.

Yes, every place moving metal parts meet should have grease. All gears should have lubrication
 
nice lookin rig, I've heard great stuff about the coyote, how would you compare it to your other rigs?
my wheel bearings squeel all the time, is it coming from the spur gear for sure? my rigs are all noisy beasts lol, but i run n mud and water every chance i get whereas i swap bearings... well i dont swap bearings so i got squeels lol
 
I’m getting metal driveshafts tomorrow, I will lubricate those gears when I change them.

I really like it a lot. It feels different, not sure if I can say better. I do enjoy it tons. It sure has more clearance than my trailrunner.

I put a brushless in mine and it whines. I understand that the brushless motors can have a bit of whine. Was out yesterday and it was quiet. but overall...it is still one of the best rigs I have.
