High-Level Performance Gears. Getting larger tires for off road driving? Hauling and towing heavier loads? If you’re looking for gears that will deliver increased power to your workhorse of a truck, look no further than Motive 8.5 in. & 8.6 in. Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit with 4.56 gear ratio. This triple alloy gear set is engineered to fit GM 8.5 or 8.625 differential cases. Get additional lower-end torque that’s perfect for rock crawling, towing, and hauling. Drive more confidently on inclined roads and get more work done with your truck.
High Quality and Better Value. One of Motive gear’s selling point is value for money without sacrificing quality. This Motive Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit is forged from high-grade 8620 steel alloy that features increased core strength compared to lower grade alloys. Each gear goes through a computer-controlled heat treatment process that further reinforced the metal. This treatment allows the metal to withstand higher stress from added torque and horsepower.
Reprogramming After Installation. Changing gear ratios and upgrading to larger tires, for that matter, throws off your speedometer readings. Remember to retune or reprogram your truck’s computer after installation to maintain accurate speed measurements.
