Re: Rear gears

Is the center of the axle housing round? if so,you have the HO52 which allows simple gear changes. You'll need the complete differential assembly. the best hiway ratio is 4.10. It's just a matter of sliding the axles out,unbolting/removing the assembly,replacing with new one,and sliding the axles back in.
