Russ at Gearhart Engineering has them for less than a 1000 new. Gearhart Engineering And the goin used price is around 600 each. Sorry not tryin to ruin someones deal but they are available and you can buy them new from detroit but you must order 10 or more before they will make them.

I thought thats what low range was for? :-D Hey Tom what size shafts are in those airlocked axles? I have several sets of 5 tons with the same design airlocker but instead of the standard 2 1/8" 16 spline shafts mine has 2 1/4" 23 spline shafts in them. I was just curious if they upgraded the...

As far as I know rockwell made 2 ratios for the 2.5 axle the 6.72 that most people have and there was another military vehicle that used these axles that had a different ratio but are rare. Talking with Ed at Memphis Equipment awhile back he had mentioned what the vehicle was but didn't know...

Yes you endup with a torque difference but you have to remember that if you install a monster tire on there that is a lot more recipricating weight than the origanol 9.00x20. This in turn will sap more power to turn versus a faster gear ratio in the axle the gears weight diff is minimal. Plus...

I forget the name of the guy. But these gearsets were origanolly made for a customer who drove his deuce from L.A. out into the desert and used it as a motorhome. The guy bought 7 sets of gears and Russ did the install work for him. The guy has been running them for years without a problem...

He makes a lot of other things too for the rockwell. And he can make custom parts too if you need.

It's a little pricey but my buddy Russ at Gearhart Engineering makes a lower numerically gear ratio for the 2.5 ton topload. It's a 5.41:1 ratio. Plus he makes many other cool stuff for the Rockwell axles also. You can checkout his stuff at Gearhart Engineering These are high quality...

That is a good question. As for bumper height alot of times vehicles that are designed higher than the laws from factory are exempt to this.

Do they still sell these?

From what I've just searched and read using varible voltage rate LED's is the way to go a little pricey but comparable to building a converter box.

Ah thank you I'll look for it.

thanks I'm interested in more info on this.

Nobody knows a?

Hey guys I have 27' lowboy I want to pull behind my deuce but the trailer is pulled behind a diff. truck too that is 12 volt whats the best way to wire or convert the output of my system to 12 volt so I can use the trailer with both trucks? Thanks

x2 anybody?

Must be a Pa thing. Looks like something we would do. LOl:twisted: Loved it.

There are a few non military ratios available for the 5 ton also. I have several sets of 5.81 ratio dropouts and also a set of 7.54 ratio dropouts and a set 0f 9.34 ratio drop outs there are quite a few others too but were only found on civilian use toploaders.

Was thinkin of puttin 5 tons under it too. I have a set with 5.81:1 gears and air lockers. I figure that would speed it up a little.:twisted::twisted:

Me and my group of guys bought a few things. But most was from the scrap guys after the bought. I paid $6 a piece for 25 2.5ton driveshafts for between the tandems and several 5 ton axle shafts for 40 bucks each. My friend Mike Vaters (Black Stallion monster truck) bought 5 front 2.5tons for...
