Trail-Creeper Super Finish 8" IFS Clamshell Ring & Pinion Gears
Trail-Creeper Super Finish 8" IFS Clamshell Ring & Pinion Gears
Tired of waiting for your ring and pinions to break in before towing or hitting the trail? Trail-Gear has the solution with our new Trail-Creeper Super Finish 8” Clamshell Ring & Pinion Gears. Our Trail-Creeper Super Finish 8” Clamshell Ring & Pinion Gears require absolutely no break-in time. You can install these gears and get right into the action without the need to worry about premature ring and pinion failure.
Trail-Creeper Super Finish 8” Clamshell Ring & Pinion Gears are made from tool-grade 8620 steel and heat-treated for maximum strength and wear resistance. The gear teeth are cut using Gleason CNC hobbing machines & cutters. Gleason gear-cutting technology produces an unprecedented level of accuracy and surface finish, which allows the gears to transmit more torque and improve fuel efficiency.
Key Benefits:
- No break-in period.
- Less friction.
- Reduced wear allowing bearings and gears to last longer.
Trail-Creeper Super Finish Ring & Pinion Gears are treated with REM® Isotropic Super Finishing (ISF®) process. The process that is used to polish our gears is the same used for aerospace applications. The REM® Isotropic Super Finishing (ISF) process removes the microscopic peaks in the material and creates a surface on the ring and pinion gears with a roughness of less than 10 µin Ra! This means that there is less friction between the gears, reducing wear by 95% and allowing the gears and bearings to run cooler and last longer.
The REM® Isotropic Super Finishing (ISF) process not only decreases friction and wear in the gears, but it creates a non-directional surface that increases lubricant retention on the gear surface, reducing lubrication requirements.
On Toyota trucks we recommend 4.88's for 33" tires and 5.29 for 35" and larger.
For Toyota 8" IFS Clamshell front axles only. Will not fit 7.5" IFS front axles or 8" solid axles.
