$ not a issue I just want to have the "best" 4.10 set up for my stock 10 bolt. I am just installing the gears. I have 25k miles few bolt ons and suspension mods and I do not plan on having over 450 HP. So if anyone could let me know what they got or what the best would be it would be great. Thanks

 

Motive 4.10's are good... I have 60k on mine with no problems..But them my car is 90% stock.If you are going to be making 450RWHP it dosent matter what brand because there gunna break sooner or later...

 

Thanks. Yea if i plan on going with big HP id have to save some $ for a 9 inch but for now I just want the faster acceleration on my mostly stock Z. Anyone else?

 

I have Motive 4.10's using a T/A girdle. They're dead quiet ( some of the quiet has to do with the install, but also the pitch they cut the gears with) and I've flat out abused mine running 420 rwhp on a 6 speed. I've been to the track twice.

I don't drive the car much, but when I do I run it to the fullest. Good gears. (Motive)

 

im in the same boat. dont know what gears will hold up best for my drag radial some strip mainly street ss. i have gm oem 4.10 in there now and they whine from my setup and have a vibration. now that its nice out im gonna throw new bearings/races throughtout the rearend,re-setup and if the whine/vibration still there im gonna go with a new set

 

I can vouch for Motives... Quiet and strong.

I've heard multiple Richmond's... Noisy!!!(whine) but strong.

 

Can you take the Motive 4.10s that go into the stock 10Bolt and put them in a 12 Bolt later?

 

Richmond

 

I would go with Strange. They are a much better quality gear.

 

"Can you take the Motive 4.10s that go into the stock 10Bolt and put them in a 12 Bolt later?"

No, different size.

 

I've read countless posts here crapping on Strange for !!!noise!!!!! Richmonds are known to be !!!!!!!noisy!!!!!!

If you want a quiet gear that's just as strong as any 7.5" 10-bolt can be- Motive's are the pick of the litter.

 

Sounds good to me. Thanks for the info
