My dealership was able to get me the gear no problem... even had it in stock on a Saturday!! Hopefully you were able to get one... if not, let me know! Just put a new one in mine this weekend! :thumblef:
If you're looking for a A-body 8 3/4, I have one for sale in the Parts For Sale area if you want to check it out... just dropped the price too as I'd like to move it out! :)
