If you're diving into the world of performance gear, you’ve probably heard of Motive Gear. These guys know their stuff when it comes to drive train components. Seriously, they’ve got one of the biggest selections of ring and pinion gear sets out there, catering to just about any ride you can think of—whether you’re hitting the trails or cruising the streets. The quality? Top-notch. Years of racing experience and solid engineering go into every piece, so you know you’re getting something that’s been tested and proven in real-world conditions.
Check out the Motive Gear A-Line Differential Ring and Pinion. It’s designed for GM 7.5"/7.625" differentials, and it comes with a 3.08 gear ratio. That’s perfect if you’re looking to balance power and efficiency without sacrificing too much on the highway. You’ll need a carrier that can handle a 3.08 ratio or lower, but once you’ve got that sorted, you’re in business.
