Does anyone know where to buy a new ring & pinion for a 1990 Westy?

Or I have a friend that cuts gears would someone be able to get me a drawing or specs?? What material should be used.

thanks
Rob

For an auto? Stock gearing?

If your friend can make any gear ratio by cutting you would have a whole lot of buyers.

You can buy them new but they are really, really expensive

I bought a junkyard transmission with a good R&P (it's pretty easy to pull the bellhousing and visuall check the R&P gears for damage) and had it rebuilt or or you could transfer the R & P to your current tranny (and have it rebuilt).
