    Gear Drive

    This topic has been talked about alot here but, I have a Milodon gear drive, its really the only one I have ever had so I can't comment on the RCD stuff. The Milodon is pretty easy to install, if you know how to drill a straight hole you can install this gear drive. The gears last what seems forever, nothing but good things to say about mine.

    gear drive

    The nicest and tightest gear drive I found when I ran a chevy style set up was from Fowler . And I have used many different ones. I run a Casale on the BAE now. and it is awesome Food for thought. Don.

    Thanks Corey...

    I have seen the other posts, I have narrowed my decision down to either of the two mentioned based on value for money. All I am asking is if someone was offered a Milodon or an RCD no other choice what they would take....

    Obviously you are a Milodon fan so score one for them ;)

    RCD is # 1 for me.

    I have two Fowlers, but, they were made by RCD ! They are older !

    gear drive

    No you asked for opinions. But if you are buying used stuff I would buy RCD. Don

    We like the Donovan Gear Drive. I have a Milodon drive that I've never used, for sale.

    Gear Drive

    The RCD drive is about 100.00 bucks more but they do have a billet front cover, if you want the nice shiney stuff the RCD is the one, or save the 100.00 bucks and get a Milodon with the cast housing. Billet may be stronger but if the gear drive is set up correct I don't think it really matters.

    2 more cents

    gear drive

    I think the rcd is the nicest of the bunch!!! but you pay for it!!!!!! the only problem I have seen is if you want to run a pioneer front drive it will not fit on the rcd, I run the drive that Fowler sells is not bad.
