hey guys i recently broke a transfer case housing and by the time i realised it was too late, high range gears are pretty FUBAR, what i was wondering is if it is possible to use 1l high range gears with the 6.5 low range gears? or will they not fit on the shafts? trying to sort it out with bits i have laying round haha cheers, mick |

Don't the 6.5's have a warranty? Also, I'm pretty sure the 6.5's replaced every gear in the case, so if your counter shaft is toast (which has one of the high range gears on it) the whole shaft is toast and you'll need a new one anyway. |

No idea, I'd send Sean from lowrange an email and ask him, surely he will know, seems to be nice enough to answer questions. |

Issues with the actual gears or breaking cases? |

The gears were fragile (from memory). I've never used a set, just recall a lot of complains about them at the time. |
