Hughes Planetary Gear Set (HTHP169PGK)

Hughes Performance is proudto present its all billet planetary gear set for aluminium Powerglides — witha 1.76:1 gear ratio thatʼs ideal for todayʼs big-cubic-inch motors. This extremely stout gear set features new E9310 gears (eight pieces), a new forged ring gear a new forged planetary housing, 9310 pins, and new washers and needle bearings. The forged billet output shaft offers excellent torsion memory, which means you can twist it, but they virtually canʼt break it —and itʼs available in long,medium (4 link dragster ) and “shorty†versions.

Other aftermarket companies only offer planetary sets with steeper gears, but Hughes knows they just donʼt work aswell as 1.76ʼs with the torque output of the big motors today — not to mention the hard-hit/soft transition torque converters and improved tire compounds.
