I got mine at the Dodge dealer. They make "0" noise. I have heard that some others do after awhile. I got my speedo gear from LPE.
You will love em !!

Actually, the Richmond gears are weaker than the Viper 4.10:1 gears - its all in the pinion gearshaft. Our Corvette Dana 44's use a pinion shaft size the same as on the Dana 60, the Richmond gears are true Dana 44, so they must use a pinion shaft spacer sleeve to fit in the Corvette.

I bought my gears from Al Kindler and installed them 2 years ago. Best mod I ever made. I put about 2,500 miles/year on the car, including a little bit of 1/4 mile action and some autocross. I did the R&R of the pumpkin and had Chris Reinhardt's dad (Paul) do the setup for me. They're nice and quiet, no gear whine. It's all in the set-up.
You'll need the following parts...
- Gears...~$300 delivered from Al
- Speedo Correction (I used gears from LPE)....~$150 (can also use an HPP+ for ~$330 or a Cyberdyne Unit for ~$125)
- Gear Lube & GM Limited Slip Additive...~$20
- Install can be up to $600 depending on the shop.
While you're in there, it's a good time to check the u-joints (driveshaft and halfshafts), especially if you have a lot of hard miles on them and the rear shocks.
Make sure to mark the location of the camber cams or your first stop will be the alignment shop.
