Default Gears

If someone has a second, could they help answer a couple of questions about 4.57 gears. I read way back when in a thread about the 4.57 gears being the same as the ones manufactured for another car company (Kia maybe?). I can't seem to locate that thread. But my question is how do I go about ordering these gears? I just call up the local car dealership and ask to buy them? Which specific ones do I ask for? Or would you recommend I order from Rick's?

The 4.33/4.44/4.77's are all mazda products.
The 4.57 ratio is unique to Rick's.

Gears, install kit from www.ricks2k.com includes shims, gear oil, yellow box or yellow jacket. FYI, Rick sells 4.77s too.
