i dont realy know much about gears but i wanna get either 3.42s or 3.73s i got 2.73s right now but im confused about the 3 series or 2 series carrier thing what do i need to get before i bring it to a shop to get installed i knwo the gears and pinion and berings is that it help needed thanx

You have a 2 series carrier. If it is a 10 bolt (look at the cover and count the bolts) there are companies that make as high as 3.42 for it. You neeed a 3 series carrier for 3.73 gears. If you have a 9 bolt it is very expensive to do gears in it and from what I understand not many places sell them.

I believe an 89 could have either a 10 bolt with a 7.5 or a 7.625 ring gear or it could have 9 bolt.

I can get you all the 9 bolt parts you need, including gear sets to 4.10.

Currently installing 3.73's into my 9 bolt (YES, it is a 9 bolt & YES they are 3.73's, not 3.70. I currently have 4.10 gear sets and new series 3 carriers in stock for 9 bolts )

im pretty sure its a 10 bolt in summit i would need the one thats RMG-4900071?? its the 3.73 gear (3.08 lower carrier )

If you have 2.73's it's a 10 bolt 2 series carrier. Correct, RMG-4900071, it's the same that I have.
