They're the exact same piece. I'd buy the ricks over the J's unless you really want to pay more

I believe J's are cryo'd, but Rick's are not. Of course, you can always cryo the Rick's on your own.

I though tricks were comparable to the OEM units, while J's were just beefier and built/treated using stringer stuff...

My understanding is that 4.44 gears are not obtainable at this point (no more left) until remanufactured -- anyone know any different on this ?

No, you are correct. We will be making a public announcement soon.
