diff ratios

Post by TOJO 12-HT »

Hey
I have a HJ75 5speed manual (H55F)
Running 35s on factory diff ratios, that i belive are 4.11

Now i want to mainly fit 79series axle assemblys F&R, with 79series diffs 4.3 ratio. What final drive ratio would i get back to? 33s?
As atm its just a bit high geared

Sounds about right.

33s change final drive by about 5%
35s change final drive by about 10%, 4.3:1 diff ratios will bring it back to about a 5% change in final drive.

Nope, 105/79series centres are different, ring gears gave a different bolt pattern.

Side gears are different, 79 series use 32 spline axles.

Cant easily do that either, just get 5 stud wheels.

X2 there is no straight forward way to convert 5stud to 6stud.
