Calmini or if you can find one get a 1L case out of a late84 on 1L sierra as they are approx 12% lower.
also remember if you are going by the trip meter for economy your tires are bigger now and now the trip meter is out the same amount as the difference as your tyres.

i hope im not sounding like an evangalist here, but ive heard enough bad stories about some other usa suppliers to help me decide which way to go. its a big chunk of money, and its not easy to come by for me, which is why i dug around forums and so on for a good 2-3months before emailing trailtough. i emailed calmini the same day, and i still havent had a reply from them..
'so why are you selling brand new tcase gears if theyre so good, mung mung?'
last week i found out my wife and i are having our first baby. thats why all my other junks up for sale too. if i could keep the gears, i certainly would.
