I just ordered regular 4.88 gears for a 8.8. But when installing them don't pit shims in between the pinion and the pinion bearing cause I did 1 and had to heat the bearing with a torch to get it off lol

I'm pretty sure it is reversed cut, on my receipt from getting my gears done it said 4.56 and 4.56 rev.
