Source for Odd, high Numerical Ratio 8 3/4 Gears

[slant six]

Hello sages, is there a source for any 8.75 gear sets above 5.13:1?

I am looking to try a ~ 5.88 or a ~6.1
I have a 5.57 now.

It seems that all of those super low gear ratios are made for Dana rears.

I wanted to find a new one instead of hunting swap meets..I just don't know if they are made or available.

Thanks.

You didn't say what number center section you have, it will matter.
However, I don't know of anything over a 5.13- but I think I know who would know. CALL Cass at Dr. Diff. They don't list them on their site, but I'd be willing to bet if such an animal exists he'll know...

Thank you.

I can build this for a 489 case.
I will check with Cass aka the Dr.

Just an option if good used is okay and where the 8-3/4 was used (along with /6 engine) is start searching for material handlers. Lull brand from the early 70’s and into the 80’s used some /6 engines and 8-3/4 axles and they have very steep gear ratios. I’m not sure if equipment bone yards still have them.
