3.90 motive gears

[98LSC32V]

I have new motive 3.90 gears, new but not in original box. They have been sitting in the garage for awhile so they have some slight surface rust. $175 is the cheapest you will find them online brand new, I will let them go for $100.

 

[Geezer]

Will they fit an 02 TC? Just gears or with a LS?

 

[98LSC32V]

ttt, I will take any reasonable offer for these brand new Motive 3.90 gears. They are a good balance between 3.73 and 4.10 gears.

Serge,



If you could explain whats going on here I would appriciate it.


1. NOT "slight" surface rust. After scraping off the build up the gears are pitted pretty badly.

2. Thread Locking compound, Leading me to believe it's been installed.

3. More rust

4. 36 Tooth Ring gear

5. Nicks in the ring gear caused by poor packaging, caused by the pinion banging aginst the ring.

6. One of the many chipped and or broken teeth on the pinion.

7. Obvious wear pattern on the pinion signifying prior use.

8. Burnishing on the pinion shaft from a bearing that used to be on it.

9. Ford factory paint on the end of the pinion.

10. Explains it all.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------




I also can't help but notice that there are NO ring gear sets out there that have 36 teeth on the ring and 10 on the Pinion. The only thing I can come up with is, The ring is out of a 3.27 unit, and the pinion is 4.10. I got my info here......www.usgear.com/tl/ford1.htm


Please get in touch with me so we can work something out to remedy this.


Thanks.


Mike

Serge, I know you've seen this thread, and know what's going on. I promise I'm not so upset over the deal that we can't work it out. Hell just send me the right gears and I'll pay the shipping again.
