T-Case Doubler

Post by greg »

Okay, I've read a little bit about the 8:1 gear set and that's all very nice, but what about this:

Nabbed from www.zukiworld.com wrote:SPRINGFIELD, OR -I had the chance to stop by Sky's new shop in Springfield, Oregon and was surprised by a number of new products he has in development. One of which was this Samurai t-case doubler. Sky has cast a new front half of the Samurai case and incorporated the use of Sidekick range gears yielding an additional choice of 1:1 or 1.8:1 to your Samurai t-case. "One of the benefits of this approach is that the jack shaft retains more length giving smoother and more trouble free operation." stated Sky. This new product is available now. Call Sky's Offroad Design for more information today at 1(541)736-3743.


Perhaps this is something a bit cooler still because it appears to work the same way as a Spidertrax Thorax - it sits between the gbox and x-fer and allows a 1:1 and 1.8:1 without competely removing the jackshaft (which is of course part of the problem)...

However, what it does do is provide you with another figure in your multiplication for your crawl ratio and that's always cool :cool:

I like the thought of that.

I do have a couple of Vitara Tcases lying around, and I'd probably buy a Sierra if I roll the Vit so....

Hmmmmm....
