Best gear shop?
« on: June 03, 2025, 09:17:23 PM »
Does anyone have recommendations for an excellent front and rear differential shop? I’m planning a hunting/off-road vehicle and would like to regear the front and rear for bigger tires plus put a locker up front and a Detroit trutrac in the rear. I’ve dealt with some shops before and it seems hard to find someone that you know did it right.

You should probably get in touch with the off road clubs like Timber Tamers for that question.  Son in law is active in Oregon and those guys live to work on their rigs and know where and how to get it dine

I have heard Northridge 4 X 4 does good work.

I believe they only sell gears, no more services!
