How many USA manufacturers are there that make aftermarket C6 R&P gears?

I found Yukon Gears & Axles makes them. Who else?

Who makes the best aftermarket Corvette Ring & Pinion gears? Why - do you feel that way?

In the past 5 years have you ever had poor quality Ring & Pinion gears for your C6? IF SO - When, what went wrong, and who made them?


Thank you,

Oem stuff is reportedly high standard.

Motiv, Nitro, AmTech. Getrag makes the Corvette gears for GM.

Track will need aftermarket with boosted parts.

Just what are you looking for in usage?

I have a DTE now (Hoosier Engineering) rebuilt diff with 4:10's, problem free for 7 years. Street only.

I believe they offered a choice between Motive and Getrag set. The DTE would cold treat them.

Cold treated, carbon clutch packs revised oiling system, shot and preen parts C5 Z06 shafts.

Check out Hoosier Engineering. Many stages to choose from.

Not just any shop can set up a C6 differential. It takes special tools and the setup is crucial for problem free reliability.

I would call up RPM or Hoosier and have a chat with them.

Both are/where ? sponsors.

Boomer111, Good info and just what I am after. I will check out Hoosier Engineering.

BTW - I saw Nitro offers them too. But they only showed the 3.42 ratio or that is all I found on their site.

Thank you for your time and input.
Sincerely,

Unreal

Need to specify what you have too. Z06/GS/ZR1 R&P are different and there are zero aftermarket options. So all of those cars run the factory 3.42

All after market ring and pinions for the C5/C6 are made by Motive in Italy. The other companies Yukon, Nitro, ECT are all reboxed motive gears. The corvette uses a very unique gear set that is very different than a standard RWD differential. Because of this its very expensive to make the tooling to forge and machine the gears and the corvette is a fairly small market in the gear manufactures eyes.
