The availability of the reverse cut R&P set is just within the last few months Steve.
Todd's determination to do a 4WD Bug based on Subaru drivetrain required the special gearset - which otherwise would be totally unavailable. I can't imagine the financial commitment to get a special cut gearset made! But Todd went through with it, and now others can benefit from this development. I've got a feeling though, this is the kind of special "product" that won't be around for years to come. In other words, if it sounds like something one would want to jump into for their build, I wouldn't count on these gearsets being available 5 or 7 years from now (thinking you can wait until you get around to it!).
