Well glad to hear that’s over! Also glad I went with Motive gears myself!

Sucks you had to go through that. We all learned something from it though... so thank you?

must be "the luck of the draw" ?
I put a Richmond in my Buddy's K/5....3.08
It set up almost perfectly with the pinion depth specified...
quiet as a church mouse

This was Excel by Richmond, vastly different price point (~50%) than Richmond.

Looks like Motive for me, already sitting in my Wish List at Summit. The 'thick' 4.11 gears that work in the 3.08 carrier are about $25 dollars more than a set for an original 4.11 carrier.
