Check equipment bone yards. If you are thinking about one for a ram, they're pretty big. Why not a gear vendors or U. S. Gear???

you need to look at gear selection available for the more popular ones out there and then try and find one of that make/model. You'll find most of them have no higher than a 4:10:1 ratio standard for the high side gear. now to do a gear swap you're looking at another $800-$1500 to gear it where you could use it. (again provided you buy one that has a taller gear available)



i assume you're looking for a taller high gear than what you have and a comparable low gear than current too?



long story short, good luck! i dont think you'll find what you're looking for or at least not at an affordable cost campared to a Gear vendors or US gear overdrive.

hmm, i was afraid of that one... maybe ill have to go US gear, as gear vendors isnt to my liking. i would like to go to a 35ish inch tire in the long run, and keep my 4. 10's then have a 4. 88 or 5. 13 ish gear for hills. should keep me real nice in the power band for running up hills empty or loaded.

Two speed axles when out on fire truck about 30 years ago. You need to look at something more high tech
