newthing, the mgt is one very loud truck. that high pitched sound your hearing is not uncommon. its a display of power!

also, im glad to hear your tranny issues are somehow sorting themselves out.

If it's high pitched then it's probably not sfifting. I had tranny issues with it before and it wouldn't shift to 2'nd - at WOT it was revving really high, the difference was very noticeable.

If you've reset the shift point with no success then i suggest you remove the tranny and check the 2-speed hub. The grub screw may have come loose which secures it onto the shaft, or the shifter mechanism may have broken. Taking it apart won't take long, and you'll definately solve the problem if you check over everything.
