Description
Conquer Extreme Terrains. If you’re looking to turn your Chevy into a rock crawling, towing and hauling machine, better get the gears for it! Take a look at Motive Performance 8.5 in. & 8.6 in. Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit with 5.57 gears. This low and short gear set provides enough low-end torque for even the most demanding rock crawling enthusiast. Tow heavy campers or boats with full control and drive on the steepest trail like it was a flat highway. Motive’s high-performance gears will give the power you need to push your truck to its full potential.
Tough Gears for Heavy Duty Use. Heavy-duty driving applications need heavy-duty gears. Fortunately, Motive Performance 8.5 in. & 8.6 in. Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit delivers both performance and quality. This 5.57 gear set is forged from strong 8620-Grade triple alloy steel. It can withstand the extreme loads and pressures that would break factory equivalents. The gears are heat-treated and machined using state-of-the-art computers to ensure precise measurements. This allows for the required clearances, backlash, and bearing preload that the gears need for optimal rotation.
Speedometer Retuning After Installation. Any change of gear ratios would require a retuning of the speedometer. Use a hand held tuner or recalibrating tool to keep speedometer readings up to date.
Mechanical Skills and Special Tools Required. Leave the installation of the Motive Performance 8.5 in. & 8.6 in. Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit to your trusted auto shop. Since specialized tools and equipment are required, you’re better off handing the job over to professionals.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Policy. The manufacturer has full confidence on their Motive Performance Ring Gear and Pinion Kit so they are giving a 2-year or 100,000-mile warranty to their customers. The coverage includes factory defects, from materials to workmanship.
Technical Note. It’s critical to keep the front and rear gear ratios close to identical for Chevy Silverado 4WD models. This prevents failures on the drivetrain that could cost you a lot money to repair and replace.
Application. The Motive Performance 8.5 in. & 8.6 in. Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit fits 2007 to 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models.
