The drivetrain should be sweet and quiet, so the only real culprit for noise, as Sam says, is the pinion/spur mesh.

I've found that for indoors on carpet it should be set pretty low and fairly stiff. It turns really well, so you can set the front stiffer than the back. Diffs have both got 7.5k oil in and I use Schumacher Mini-Pin yellows all round. Mine still isn't perfect, but it's OK.

Keep in touch with how you get on!
