If you want it slow, get a set of 6.5:1 transfer gears and some short (4.88:1?) diff gears.

I have 4.8 toys 6.5 t/c and 35s its ok around town but there is no way id drive it the 3/4hr drive to work each day 4000rpm between 80-90km/h.
Although when I had 33s and 4.8 diffs I had a stock case in and it was great on road.
Just some thoughts for you.
Ive considered 4.5 diffs but I love the low range with the webered 1600 it pulls great off road, and loves windy up and down hills but show it the open road and I have 18 wheelers passing me.

grimbo is right mate.

Don't see how you think coils make it better. Will make it worse. :roll:

No ifs ands or buts about it your rig is illegal with lux diffs, a 1.8litre petrol engine and coils in QLD. If your going to run the lux diffs I would use the 35's for off road only and run the smallest tyres you can onroad or make it a trailered rig. You will stick out and pulled over in no time with 35's.

Is it a 1 or 2y engine from a grinner 2wd lux??
