delivery costs could decide that, I'm sure a whole case could cost more than a few gears

They are very good gears, afaik there is an unconditional lifetime warranty on them, from what I've read if you manage to break them you send them back and they will send you new ones.

Also postage to oz was/is $60 for the gears (you can fit a bit more in the box too, send them an email) don't just order it from their website, they will explain it all via email.

Even if you do order through the website, they refund you the money anyway.

yeah, i am kinda knew to all this if you cant tell already haha. so by my understanding with these reduction gears. im running 31's on my sierra and atm im pushing to get 80km's outta it, and if i put the reduction gears in i would be able to get higher speeds outta it? and have a better low range and would be better off road? yeah?

Im no expert compared to some of the other guys on here, but if your pushing it to get to 80kms you have other problems. My 1.3 doesnt have that bad of a time getting too 100kph with my 31s and stock gears.

Id be looking at that problem first before gears if i was you :lol:

Mine used to do that and I just reconditioned the Carby. Worked a treat, could do 100kms on a flat stretch of road then. Took about 3kms to get there though... :lol:

Still not being able to reach 80kph with stock gears and 31s is pretty bad though right? :lol:
