I'd love to know where to get a ring-and-pinion set to switch from 4:11 gears to 3:50 or 3:55 gears. Can you fine folks suggest a good supplier? How about an installer in the Carolinas?

Second that! Talk to Patrick's. He has the instructions for them and they will walk to through the install process. Not to mention they are Patricks design.

If you need help with the shims to set the ring to pinion mesh let us know. There are plenty of good pictures amongst the group here.

It would also help if we knew what you are running. There are alternatives & limitations depending on the vintage. Welcome to the websight. Should we call you Bigred or Goofball.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
