I'm looking at getting some reduction gears for my transfer case
but my problem is I have a 1984 1 litre case with a 4wd light switch
and cant find any gears to suit it.
Does anyone know of any?
Would 1.3 litre reduction gears fit into mine?
Thanks Brad

I'm pretty sure i will do the conversion.
My deciding factor is the gearing. Where would i be able to get the
4.6 , 5.12 ratios for 1.3? Or even transfercase gearing if need be.

Hi all i currently have a 1984 1 litre sierra How much would it cost to convert my diffs to 1.3 litre widetrack diffs? I can get the diffs for $55 each (is that alright?) I would rather pay the money and know it's done right as i am only 16 and have very litle knowledge about welding ect. Thanks Brad
