I'm gonna have a choice of using Superior Brand Gears or Spicer gears for my rear ring & pinion. (4.56's w/ ARB).

I have a choice of either of the two brands as the place I'm having the work done has both in stock.

They're only $4 apart in price.

The Superior Gears have that dark anodized looking coating on them (which will wear off during the break in period, meaning a manditory gear oil change). The Spicer gears are the silver color and without the coating on them, may or may not need a fluid change after break in (or so I'm told)

I was told by my shop that they're basically equal in strength.

What would you go with and WHY.

Spicer are U.S. made, Superior's gears are imported. I will always use Spicer whenever possible and that's what I used both times I regeared my axles.
