What I've come to learn is that Motive makes all gears for FRPP larger than 4.10's. Not the 4.10's, but larger than.

what I was saying was that Motive makes FRPP's gears above 4.10's. Motive brand has just about any gear you want. FRPP has their own upto 4.10's but have there name on Motives gear above that.

I have heard many more good reviews on the motive gears than the FRPP ones. I will be getting motive when I get mine.

From what I understand, Motive are equivalent in terms of quality, a bit cheaper, and louder in the car. So that's the trade off...

I was disturbed with my ordeals with the FRPP gears. When I received my Motive gears, they were identical in looks, dimensions, etc. I dug deeper with inquiries and revealed that Motive makes them for FRPP. I guess I was just unfortunate to encounter casting flaws with the FRPP brand.

I am pretty sure richmond makes the lower ratio's for ford and personally i think they are both very good overall.I may have some Ford gears that are brand new I would be willing to sell if anybody is interested

FYI on the motive gear and noise. I have found that the motive gear sounds no louder than FRPP. Really it comes down to your install. You could take the best gear on the market and mess up the install, and it will make noise.

We have plenty of Motive gears in stock, and I can also give you a discount on an install kit when you buy the gears. Dont forget we have FREE SHIPPING.
