Alloy USA is a newer company.  They started up a few eyars ago and are located in Corona, CA.  I think some of the people used to work at Foote Axle (Aka: Superior).  They seem to have a decent reputation among the industry.

I give them the thumbs up!!    

Ron Stobaugh used to be the president of Superior, and went off to distribute on his own.  I'm not sure how far things go back, but I'm pretty sure the quality is the same, if not better than Superior.

For stuff like gears I find it easier to brouse it on paper where it groups same items together.  I get Qtech and 4wdh catalogs all the time.

agreed! i use catalogs too, but this new package deal they have at 4wd is brand new and its not shown on the catalogs i have.
Erik, try and type in the search bar the gear ratio you need and they will all come up, its how i found mine
