Ring and pinion for chev 1/2 ton tow special 4x4- 4:10 gears to replace high speed economy gears on a bobcat tower for landscaper, about 6000+ lbs towing job. Order as 1/2 ton without checking axle tags, suprise! back gears don't fit. check for 3/4 ton- back fits, front doesn't. Check punkin numbers and double check dealer who wanted $1900.00 instead of $900.00- 1/2 ton 4x4 tow special from factory is 3/4 ton rear axle and basic 1/2 ton front- need to check axles to be sure, 1/2 ton with added tow package at dealer or after sale upgrade is 1/2 ton axles front and rear, not expected to be full time tower. 1 day job after gears arrived turns into a 8 day run for parts, swap parts, wait for other parts to order, chase seals, take up floor space over weekend. Catalog showed gears for 1/2 ton, back page had '*check axle tag to verify' comment. AMC Jeep had some parts changes possible also, Renault for American market different than Mexico or Canada - when they came in for sevice needed to double check tags to get right parts. Mex R12 had R10 engine, Jeeps had Delco or Autolite ignitions, Motorola or Delco alternator- plow and tow packages also had odd parts from factory or dealer installed. Wagoneers could have Buick or AMC engines. This was before possible customer modifications. Fun times then and sometimes the paychecks bounced. 1950's IHC is relatively simple- watch out for Mahindra, M&W parts. RN.

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day.
