That was a "wow" to me because I always thought of them as very high quality providers...

I've had very good luck with Yukon from Randy's Ring and Pinion... Never once had a howler or a bad set... SO FAR.

The way I understood my issue was that it was more of a Richmond Gear problem. The gears used to be made in the US and Italy. Well when they went to the where ever to have the gears made, they were not nearly as good. When we removed the gear it had just worn the hard facing off the gear.
