The Ford Barn

Need to replace some of the gears in a transmission am rebuilding. Have been unable to find very good ford gears. I see one parts vendor's gears are made in Denmark, and other vendors advertise their gears as USA made. Has anyone had experience with the Danish manufactured gears? Are they equal to the USA manufactured gears?

I asked this same question about three months ago. Brent posted some comparative photos. The quality difference was obvious. I went with the USA gears. They are perfect! For all the trouble involved with R&R on the trans, the extra expense is worth it. If you do a search here you will probably find that original post from Brent.
