Default Re: Richmond Pro gear alert heads-up...

The pinion set up tool that T&D makes is probably the best tool you can get. With the information that is provided with the tool you can figure all the necessary dimentions in the pinion set up process with no information from the gear manufacture. Now most of the readers of this site are going to be using a 10 bolt or 12 bolt gm, 9" ford or a Dana. All of these styles of rear ends are supported by this tool. If you get into a 10.25 or 10.50 sterling housing which can be found in most of your Ford F250 pickups I have found no one makes a set up tool or a pinion bearing pulling tool for these rears. Randys ring and pinion, Raytech and some other companies sell a set up pinion bearing that is honed out so you can set the pinion up by trial and error and not damaging the bearing by pressing it on and trying to remove it. What I have found with the gear manufactures most of this stuff is comming from over seas, CHINA, and the tolerances and spec suck. I know everyone remembers the chile Goodyear tires. When you get a new gear check, check, check every dimention in the protduct that you are getting. Just my 2 cents worth. Good luck
