Just under $700 a gearset when I bought mine years ago, now I have to pull them out and go back to 3.54 to suit the 4BD1t  |

Not sure what brand these are, but Rovacraft import containers of goodies from the UK - including QT radius arms, among other things. And considering they have exactly the same photo as on the Ashcroft Transmissions site, I suspect they are likely Ashcroft gears, but you'd want to check that. They may also bring in other ratios... |

fnukle look up greatbasinrovers.com they were $1000 + freight
for 4.7's . freight was in my bag as I was there on holi's.
mine are getting pegged also, so they should be as strong a rover
as you can get.
