You do, and I payed for quality gears at a great price that have been holding up wonderfully. I have worked many Motive gear installs with out any issues.
Richmond Gear on the other hand... they can be so whiny bastards

Its has nothing to do with rusty's I don't like Rusty's myself but they are just a Distributor for these gear sets. The brand is Motive Gear and the install kit is all Timken

Edit: Its also very nice if you have 2 adjusters to work with. Going side to side with the same adjuster can be a pain

Looks like it's a 7/8 nut, so I'm going to weld that to some sch 80 or 40 tubing and then weld in a bolt or socket extension for a breaker bar on the other end. Shouldn't be hard to make either way.

i have 33's with stock gears i run 85 90 mph xD steering does need upgrade even on 33's. imho but its all what the pocket will allow. over time get the things. gears are wonderful, but the stock gearing will pull them on the road. you may notice you need gas more often but as a general rule in my xj, it doesn move unless i put 20 bucks in it for gas a day lol
