They’ve been around for a while, and you can tell they've put in the work to make some of the toughest ring and pinion gear options out there. Whether you’re tearing up the trails or cruising down the highway, they’ve got a massive selection of gear ratios to fit just about any application you can think of.

That’s not just talk—it's a testament to their years of racing experience and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques. Each component goes through rigorous testing by their in-house engineers, so you know you’re getting quality.

Now, let’s talk specifics about the Motive Gear Differential Ring and Pinion. This setup is designed for the GM 8.25" IFS, sporting a 4.30 gear ratio.
