i was pondering something a little bit ago- most likely a goofy theory but i thought i would ask. a set of 3.73's for a 2 series carrier has a thicker ring gear than a 3.73 for a 3 series carrier- correct? would this make the set of 2 series stronger than the 3 series- assuming i had the correct carrier (2 series gears for 2 series carrier...etc)?

 

No.

The ring gear doesn't break. What happens, is the teeth strip off from misalignment due to case flex, and just their general smallness.

 

thats what i figured- my theories normally never pan out to anything
