Suffering from poor performance and reduced fuel economy resulting from oversized tires?

A Nitro gear change will help get that performance and economy back!

If you've fitted larger tires to your vehicle then you are likely experiencing a loss in performance, fuel economy, and more constant transmission gear "hunting" - This is because the larger tires reduce your engine's RPMs below the optimal power band. Re-gearing the differentials in your vehicle is the only way to get your vehicle back into its optimal operating RPM range, thus improving performance and reducing strain on your vehicle's drivetrain. This is especially important for today's vehicles as they feature tall factory gearing and overdrive transmissions which are less tolerant to increase in tire size or the weight of added accessories.

It's a common misconception that gear changes are reserved only to hardcore off-roaders or trucks with huge tires. However, re-gearing is one of the single most beneficial modifications you can make to keep the performance, economy, and durability of your daily-driven 4x4. This is a mod for anyone with larger tires, increased weight, or for increased performance on stock vehicles for towing or increased acceleration.

We at Nitro Gear & Axle realize the difficulty for the average consumer or install shop to compile the list of parts and prices required when doing a gear change. To make it easier for everyone the experts at Nitro are introducing an industry first- "Gear Packages" for many popular 4x4 Fits. One part number. One price. One click away.

  • Nitro front ring & pinion
  • Nitro front Master Install Kit

  • Nitro rear Master Install Kit

  • Direct fit for 2007-2010 Dodge 2500 & 3500 with OEM carrier ONLY

Reviews

  • Does this kit come with all seals and bearings needed for gear set replacement?

    Adam Culp | 8/12/2024

    Yes

  • I'm trying to do a gear change in my 2019 GMC Denali duramax 2500. I want to go to 4:30 gears given my 35's and lift. I see you have a gear change for 11-17, but what is the difference between 17-19 year models. I thought those were the same build in the rear ends? Please let me know as I'd like to buy a kit for my truck. Thank you for your time.

    Nitro gear has only confirmed fitment through 2017 model year vehicles at this time.

  • I am in kentucky close by. Do you these install locally?
