Does anyone know if Marlin makes his own gears or if he buys from a vendor? I need to build a transmission for a college offroad competition and I need some high quality/strength gears. I think I need non-CNCed gears since you need to use low strength materials to be cut. I was just curious because I know Marlin's got a great reputation for durability. Any suggestions?

Jack O'Brien is another option

uhm? you need to fill us in on what you need (or is it top secret?)

I assume this is Yota stuff you need right?

why not use 2 stock yota cases for strenght?

eighter way a gearset should be plenty strong enough unless this is a secret mission or somthing..

they have been used by various competitors for years around these parts...even last camo a day or two!

You've probably taken enough Chem E and Materials Science classes to know that you can have a cut gear and still have it be strong/ hard.
