Motives thick vs normal gears??? Are the thick gears worth the extra $120 +/- or what? Wanting to step up to 3.73 or 4.10's but not sure if the thick should get the extra money?

I was confused until yesterday on this point, so you're not alone.

Exactly what he said. Thick gears are made for 2 series carriers.
