Ring and Pinion Gears
 
I have 3.07 Gears in right now. I would like to get some gears around 3.23 or higher. Prefer 3.46 gears. Still would like to drive it on the street. What you got?

bluzurb 05-13-2010 11:43 AM

oh yeah. 8.5 GM rear end

firebirdcrazy1959 05-13-2010 05:07 PM

I have a set of 3.23's.$100 shipped.

bluzurb 05-13-2010 05:12 PM

how used are they? Need to think about that one. 3.07 to 3.23 doesn't seem like a big enough difference.

bluzurb 05-13-2010 08:50 PM

3.42 is probably most preferable

You can get 3.42 gears from any 73-91 Suburban or full size Blazer with the 1/2 axle which is the corporate 8.5 rear.

I'll have a complete posi rear for sale with 3.73 gears shortly, ready to bolt in. I'm about 2.5 hrs north of you. I am at 2650 rpm at approx. 60 mph.

bluzurb 05-15-2010 02:44 PM

I wont' want the full rear end. I just want the gears. I guess if you would be interested we could trade gears and that way you will have a complete rear end still for sale. and how soon is shortly? I need to have my car up and running no later the middle of june. I am leaving then. Moving to Illinois.

aronhk_md 05-15-2010 10:26 PM

It wont be easier that way I dont think...having the gears in will save someone the $150-$200 it will cost to have a set of gears installed. I shouldnt have a problem selling it as a unit when the time comes. It will probably be the first week of June.

bluzurb 05-17-2010 12:02 PM

Ok, let me know how much when the time comes.

bluzurb 05-18-2010 03:00 PM

Hi,

I have some 3.73 Richmond gears ( for GM 8.5" 10 bolt rear ) with only a few 1/4 mile test passes on them, still new looking, no wear pattern to speak of.
They were bought off a member here not too long ago and were never installed in my rear, I'm going to use a complete new rear end I have that already has the same gears in.

$110.00 US plus shipping.

PM me if your interested, I can ship asap.

bluzurb 05-18-2010 08:16 PM

that's what im talking about. sounds great to me. I see you are in canada. I am actually moving to Illinois. How much to ship to Harvard, IL?

1974formula 05-18-2010 10:31 PM

I'll check on the shipping tomorrow, maybe I'll throw in some $$ for that.

bluzurb 05-18-2010 10:33 PM

yeah i was thinking that's gonna be a ridiculous shipping charge because it's considered international shipping.

1974formula 05-19-2010 10:44 AM

O.K....I have some shipping rates for you, I'll PM you.

1974formula 05-20-2010 10:22 PM

It's been a few days ??

The gear set will be in the performance parts for sale section tomorrow and my local kijiji.

bluzurb 05-21-2010 10:01 AM
