40th spur gear replacement

Post by Sedizzle »

Unfortunately I managed to strip the spur gear on my 40th rere. Not having much luck finding a suitable replacement. Would be greatly appreciated if you might know where to find one or a suitable alternative.

-Thank you

Ok, I did come across that. WIll the diff balls fit in those holes? I thought those were mounting holes. Thanks for the reply.

Those are diff ball holes that get used as mount holes when the gear is used on a Stealth slipper.

If your LHS has a standard Kimbrough, it is the exact same gear. Oddly enough, it is cheaper in Associated packaging.

Also, if you upgrade to 12 total carbide diff balls in the kimbrough gear you will have the best diff/slipper holding set up. Remember, that poor gear has to serve as both in a 6 gear trans.
