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.

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..!!

I reckon u will be reving about 4200 at 100ish.
U will be reving a lot higher than now at cruise.

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.....

by short stuff
i run 6.5.1 with 32s, but with these i spend most my time in 3rd gear off road
On the highway mine revs at 4000 at 100kph which is 110 i think
