How long are they there for? You could probably get them UPS or FedEx overnight from anywhere in the US for not too much. Give Sean a call at LowRange Offroad and see what he can do for you.

need an answer asap

Post by andy1517 »

guys need a quick decision.

Looking at getting 6.5:1 reduction gears for my sierra 1.3 ltr.

At the moment only has 30.5 inch muddies on it.

It has exhaust and extractors and cruises on the highway ok.

Will i lose this by placing such reduction gears in??

Need to know asap..!!

not so much rocks? want to go bigger (32") but not until i can afford suspension lift.

Don't do much rock work at all?

I am trying to find 5.14 gears in Orlando USA, so my brother can bring them back. I can only find 6.51's.....

HELP!
