I want to strengthen my transfer and gear box when i get my new engine build fitted. Who does CRYO treatment in this country or does anyone recommend any other metal hardening treatment for gearboxes?

They freeze the metal which changes some particles in its structure to stronger ones, makes the way the particles make up the metal more uniform and bonds them together in a stronger way. This all happens at different temps iirc. There was an article on it in Performance Tuner a while back which was very interesting.
