I prefer the Superior Gears, but they are pricey and availability can be sporadic at best.

I can get ya price if you're interested.

Randy's ring and pinion sells USA standard if you're on a budget. They're good gears for cheap
I bought my D30 gears locally at west coast differential. They're called Sierra gears and are about the same price

Oh and definitely go through RWKhaus for all your installation kit junk. They have the best prices

Yukon. Nice gears, nice master install kits

No complaints with Motives or Richmonds.

I run USA standard in my d30, which is basically remarked yukons that don't quite meet Yukon specs. I have yukons in my 8.25. No complaints with either.

Gear lower than you think you need. Never heard someone wish they would not have geared so low. People only regret not gearing low enough. I went 4.88 on 33s and am glad I did because bigger tires came not long after.

I've had good luck with Yukon gears in my previous jeep builds

I had motives, and they howled like a mofo...I'd run yukons...

what gear oil did you run

I installed a set of nitro gears in the front. They made a little bit of noise during break in while decelerating, but run nice a quiet now.

I just did this exact swap last weekend and used G2 gears and install kits throughout. They are breaking in now and it made a real difference coming from stock. I'm running 33's.

Ah I don't know now I'm even more indecisive than before. I read a lot of people had problems with yukons but you guys had good experiances. I was gonna go with motive gears because they seem to have good reviews and could be had front and rear for $460 with set up and install( still need carrier) but if they wine that's no good

Not really, it's pure opinion.
