im sure you will here it plenty of times but i would love to win thoes gears. Ever sense i bought my first toy at the age of 14 i have wanted to rock crawl. i am building my second toy from the ground up, it was probably a bad idea because now i am broke as hell and working my ass off to try and finish it, as well as attending colledge, and practicing for SkillsUSA VICA. i just busted my ass to win a gold medal in a state wide colledge level maching competion, and if i want to compete at nationals i have to raise over a thousand dollars in one week just to go which means the truck just gets to rot in the yard for a couple more months. i don't need a pitty party paraide but these gears would sure put a smile on my face.

Hey Guys I need slow gers for all the added weight on my rig .

Nothingface5384 · « **Reply #32 on:** Apr 16, 2006, 03:54:34 PM »

I would need them because i've been wanting to get into the offroad scence, now that i actually have a truck its just been about anticipation. I'm not able to afford them at the moment because i just recently put a good chunk of change into the rig so it may pass inspection and the little $ i have left i'm trying to save to finish up my 72 skylark

ps. also need them because i got the 2.4 w/ auto!

I need t-case gears because after buying my old truck back from my brother I won't have any $$ to put towards gears and it's a pain in the arse to wheel with stock t-case gears. Plus I'll make sure to send everyone to marlin for their toyota stuff (I already do that anyway). Thanks for the opportunity!

He's not buying the blue beast back, he's delusional if he thinks I'm selling it to him! I could use the gears for my baby though. It's an 85' extra cab, EFI, 5spd, 5.29's, detroits, etc... (when I get the $$$ stronger birfields + dual cases). 35" bfg's 2.5 bs cheepo rims and about three inches of total lift. Just like my bro said above, I could really use the gears, nobody like the smell of my clutch melting away. And once again, I'M NOT SELLING YOU THE TRUCK BACK!

Thanks for the giveaway!!!

Evilwhitey · « **Reply #36 on:** Apr 17, 2006, 01:48:44 PM »

Fine, I'll post pics of my junk... I still want that truck back sean!

Stock with an aussie in the rear and 33's. Looking to do a sas sometime soon (when I get the $$). I could really use really use a doubler more then gears though, since I just (last week) ordered a 4.7:1 case from you guys. Did I mention I'm a sophmore in College in a town were $7 an hour is considered making big money?

Thanks again for the opportunity!

i'm in need b/c sloooooowwwwww is freakin' awesome. i'm also saving up (hard when you're in college) for a coupler and 4.7 is kinda outta reach right now.

lemme clarify something. i just SAS'd it w/ the Marlin kit and i popped a head gasket about a week or so after that

. the head's on hold til finals are done. i didn't have any action pics, because i'm never took my camera wheelin w/ me. Props to the 5" betts springs tho, they flex like mad

something else I don't stand a chance of winning.HAHA anyways who know's

there's always hope.

I already have a 4.70 gear set and

How is the winner being chosen? Is it a drawing or does Marlin get to pick the worthy person?

Personally, I would like to see the gears go to someone that is wheeling the snot out of their mostly stock rig with a single stock case and is also on a tight budget. Try to give it to someone that will benefit the most from it. I think that 4.70 gears are the 1st mod that I would recommend to someone looking to build based on my experience.

If you looking for a second set for a second truck

If you already have a dual setup

If you are already planning to dump a bunch of

into a buggy

If you already have a set of 4.70 gears (like me)

How about someone in Canada that could provide advertisement in a new market

yota-tota · « **Reply #40 on:** Apr 17, 2006, 05:28:46 PM »

i need them for my bone stock IFS (till hysteer gets here) pickup so my 4 popper can pop along nicely on the trail with the new IROKS and 4.10's

Plus i'm in Canada and shipping would be a looot

Here are a couple of pics from calico since I put on 4 inch marlin spring and stuffed 37's under it. Now gears need to be looower!!. After suspension work budget says gears will have to wait, but wait giv-a-way we will see.Thanks for the chance.

MR_DIY · « **Reply #43 on:** Apr 17, 2006, 06:56:46 PM »

well, I first want to applaud the giveaway and all that marlin and his employees have done for the sport.

I need 4.7 gears for my rear case because I suck at driving and it'll make me not as bad. plus with my new found driving abilities I could get more folks to see my Marlin Sticker (soon to be stickers) on the rig.

I love going slow and I love Marlin... here's my junk about 2 weeks ago
my truck picking on my OTHER truck at work 8)

TatonkaII · « **Reply #44 on:** Apr 17, 2006, 07:46:48 PM »

-my other post didnt make it somehow, so if it shows up-sorry for double post-

This is an awesome give-away, sweet Marlin and gang.

I would love to win this gears as I am in the market for a used set up now-this would save the hassle of modifying d-lines.. nice plus. Also, my project truck (hopefully seen below) has been a challenge. ive had it for two years come this august. Anyways-I finally got it running this past winter by a slow rebuild and she runs strong!! Since Ive owned it Ive been buying parts-springs, steering parts, PS parts, lines, recovery stuff, and tube for an exo, and anything I could get my hands on when money was available.

The main reason I would love to be honored with this is that I am graduating from college this May and have 3 weeks to finish my build and then I am off to Tn and NC for another three weeks of WELL deserved wheeling and camping-this would make the memories that much better, after that its life-working like the rest of you guys but not as fun

thanks-YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!

I like that idea, $Beer Chug\'n$ but if it's just a name out of a hat type thing then anyone should be able to win. Though I think I would give them away to someone that does need, them should I win.

MarkyB · « **Reply #46 on:** Apr 17, 2006, 09:20:45 PM »

This would be an exelent start to my 4-Runner build up. It is currently stock on 31s. Certainly would make it easier to buy those bigger tires. (I really need'em

) Thanks for the opportunity to participate.

la bomba · « **Reply #47 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 01:04:09 AM »

Honestly, I don't need 4.7's, but I will admit that I would thoroughly enjoy them. I'm running with a single t-case (like so many of us) and contemplated the crawl box with 4.7's, but realized this would be out of my range for some time. I've only got 33's and a weak 4" lift (plus 2" body), but I like it that way. Other people have double digit lifts and tires that dwarf mine, but I enjoy being the little guy.

Gears would allow me to continue being that little guy, but still have an edge over the others.

That and as an added bonus I'm only 6 minutes from the shop, you don't have to pay for shipping, I'll pick it up!

And hey, even if I don't win,

still rules. I've already gotten a clutch from you guys and have a list a page long of other things I'll eventually get.

Crawford_The_Newbie · « **Reply #48 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 05:11:06 AM »

:thumbs:Nice Promo, I am just getting started with my rig, found a t-case on e-bay for $100 so I am getting ready to order all my stuff and spend a month of weekends in the driveway

Thanks for all the help from the forums, Have a great day

Nothing wrong with being the little guy

My rig has a 4-6" suspension lift and 33 inch tires and performs extremely well.

Wow...count me in. I really appreciate the opportunity. I've been saving for the gears for a while. Unfortunately other stuff keeps coming up. I just rebuilt the front end so that set me back. Then the starter died. Then the master cylinder started leaking. Then I put on a skid plate. Next on the list...either rear springs or the gears! My transfer case has started howling whem I'm in 4wd so I think a rebuild is long overdue! Thanks for the chance. Here's my truck.

toys4life · « **Reply #51 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 11:32:52 AM »

I just bought two cases from you guys. I was a little short for the 4.7s

Here is my trucks current state....(front springs are your 4"s)

TiTRD · « **Reply #52 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 11:54:27 AM »

I just installed your dual stock cases, this would be a nice addition to complete my rig.

It currently looks like this:

Intrepidyota · « **Reply #53 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 12:02:31 PM »

I sold the mods off my '98 Tacoma to buy this 1985 4Runner. I am currently trying to save up to buy a house so this truck is getting a budget build. At the moment it is on a 1" body lift, BFG AT's, Foxfab sliders, and has a Lockrite in the rear which facilitates my wheeling the christ out of it constantly while I attempt to put aside money for mods...is it bad to have to make repairs and remove dents before you have installed any mods?

These gears would greatly improve my crawling ability (obviously) and would put me one step closer to the built rig I will eventually have! I need 4.7's because I am never happy with the terrain I am on and my truck is not happy with the terrain I keep bringing it on! My truck will thank you after multiple trips to Paragon this year, running high blues on 31's isn't easy on the vehicle! They will be used constantly and used hard if I get them! Heres hoping that even if I don't win them, some other guy who is low on funds and loves to wheel will!

Cashed · « **Reply #54 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 02:57:16 PM »

I already have dual cases, and I plan on buying the gear set for the rear. But if I won, i could spend that money on something else for the truck. Thanks for the chance.

1Bad4Runner · « **Reply #55 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 03:08:15 PM »

I'd love to have a set of 4.7's for my Yota.

I have a 89 4Runner with a 3.0, 5.29's, locked front and rear with 37" MT/R's. I don't have a set of 4.7's because of shipping and school has me flat broke so I cannot upgrade my truck at all.

Heres a couple of pics!

BLACKDOG · « **Reply #56 on:** Apr 18, 2006, 04:42:06 PM »

I would love a set of those gears

I've already beat the snot out of my IFS, and I just recently aquired duals from you fine people at marlin

If I getthose gears, I won't even have to pull the t-cases out of my truck, because they're sitting next to me right now!! This way I could really put the MC10 to the test

my truck is black now

No offense, I don't mean to sound mean and if it is taken that way I apologize, but no rig is ever "completed." There will always be something, small or big, that you want done. You may reach a temporary plateau, but no rig is ever done.

Again, no offense meant.
