They still work great if you don't mind the obnoxiously loud CLUNK noise with every rotation of the gear.

Might get a few more thousand miles out of them.

Where did you get them at? Kinda interested. I'm stucke between choosing the 4.10's or the 4.46's so I think that the 4.30's would be great.

Yes that was at 65 for him too on a shorter tire than mine.


I got my Motive 4.30's from Ron's Machining Services on Ebay. He also has a website if you google it. He had about 10 sets when I purchased mine.
Was a flat $200 for ring and pinion.
There is a member on here that has a set with master install kit for $200 if you asked i'm sure he'd post.

I don't know what my hwy miles are like yet as I haven't burned through a few tanks yet. But there was a very minimal difference in rpm and it's holding speed a lot better so I wouldn't be surprised if its the same or better.
The only problem with getting an accurate reading is that right now I'm on my 17"s and only ran them 1 day on my 4.11"s. I'll have to switch back over to my 20"s soon to see what numbers come up.

The True Value ones that come with Ron's Package deals. They wined whined when I first put them in and then got quiet but could always here them whining faintly until they started clanking.
Need to reduce my 1/2 shift pressure a little cuz I think that's what did it (still stock pressure). These 17"s sound like I hit a dog everytime it shifts to 2nd.

Have Motive 4.30's now and they haven't made a peep but feel Damn Good all over. If you buy gears, buy motive.
