In your opinion who has best deals and reputation for gears on here?





BTW Vendors: You can PM me your price for the following

XJ Dana 44:

4.56 Ring Thick and Pinion
and bearings


Edit:
I found a steal on G2 from a private seller New with master install kit for $150. Welcome to keep posting reviews. It cant hurt the vendors for future readers.

I think the more important factor is the manufacturer of the gears- not the seller. Just google superior vs g2 or Yukon vs motive gear and read some reviews- find the part that fits your specifications/ is what you want and then find out who is cheaper. That is what I do anyways. I doubt many of us have bought the same gears from multiple vendors to give you feedback on who is the best at selling gears. All the vendors on here are pretty good- If not they get the boot. My point is just make sure you get a good product- and shop around later

I agree. I have done a lot of research then when I have pretty much decided to go with G2 a little bit ago I found an great deal on exactly what I was looking for from a private seller.

G2 4.56 ring thick and pinion with master install kit for a steal of $150

I posted it up to hope to narrow my search. I guess it worked out for me in the odd way lol. So thanks for telling me to research more. I wouldn't have found the deal without the push to keep looking haha.

No my deal with the seller of my D44 to go through tomorrow when I go to pick it up because I have already bought the gears haha.

RWKHaussuply all the way. if most gear kits are made of the same material, what makes one stronger than the other? the warranty maybe?

my favorite option is always support your local business.

I do a lot of research before buying things (isn't the internet great) and I am now leaning very much toward this supplier instead of Rustys that are a bit cheaper.

I agree, this is true for most products. I don't really believe this to be true when it comes to gears. Most retailers and installers tend to believe that other than price and the package, there's not much difference between gear brands because most tend to be made/machined by the same manufacturer.
