Title: Where to Buy Ring and Pinion
Post by: Da67goatman on October 29, 2010, 10:48:21 am

I want either a 3.42 or 3.21 ratio for my 14 bolt full floater, but I can't find any place that has any that go low enough.  They seem to stop at 3.73.  I will be checking local junkyards, but other than them any one know where to get gears?  Thanks.

I think that out of anybody, Randy's Ring & Pinion would be the most likely to have it, if anybody makes it. Or, pick up an issue of 4 wheel & off-road and check the ads in the back for suppliers.

WOW! Randy's has 3.42 but their 4 and 5 HUNDRED dollars.  OUCH!  I can't spend that much on them because its real awkward when people ask what the most expensive part of your truck is and you respond with the ring and pinion.

I just got the latest Peterson's 4 Wheel and Off-road and and they didn't have any vendors other than Randy's.
Thanks for the ideas, keep em comin.

Liberty gear or Yukon gear maybe. I don't know what size ring gear you would have but here's one set.
