Revolution Gear & Axle Ford 8.8in Rear Axle 4.56 Ratio Ring & Pinion Set

This Revolution Gear & Axle ring and pinion set features a 4.56 gear ratio, specifically designed for Ford 8.8-inch rear axles. Choosing the right gear ratio is crucial for optimizing your vehicle's performance, especially when you've upgraded to larger tires. A 4.56 ratio offers a noticeable improvement in acceleration by increasing the engine's RPMs for a given road speed, helping to bring your speedometer back into calibration and restore lost pulling power.

Manufactured from durable, well-built steel, this set is made to handle the demands of daily driving and more spirited use. The precision machining ensures that the gears mesh properly, which is key for smooth operation and longevity. Proper gear meshing also helps to minimize noise and vibration, contributing to a more comfortable driving experience. This set is a solid option for anyone looking to re-gear their Ford 8.8-inch rear end to better suit their driving needs or tire size.

When installing a new ring and pinion set, it's important to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure. This typically involves a period of gentle driving with no hard acceleration or heavy loads, followed by an oil change. This process allows the new gear teeth to properly seat against each other, ensuring optimal performance and durability for the life of the set.
