We have just been popping off the 034 ring gear and pressing on factory gears off OE flywheels with a couple of stitch welds.
We can supply them without the 6 hole ring gears as well, which would probably be fine and prevent ring gear grenade. I'd just stitch the gear on with the ol TIG

ok quick teaser for those of you not on social media.... The URQ is coming out to play. The 4000s replacement shell I bought is rotted to the point it needs serious attention. Not in the cards at the moment. Itd literally take me less time to put my URQ back on the road. Pics and progress to come. I'm kinda trying to get it ready for wolfsgart. Which actually isnt too far fetched...

Did it puncture? I would make sure the baffles are ok, seal it up and run it.
