Lux runnin 38's TSL's

Post by My Lil Lux »

Had an offer to swap for 38 swampers, Lux is presently 2.8 turboed, with 4.56 diff gears, anyone ran 38's with a diesel, They would look great, and anything I buy now, I want to put it in a buggy frame later when Lux finally dies, so these would be good, but what are your opinions, I'm thinkin there to big for current setup.
Try not to let your mind wander...It is too
small and fragile to be out by itself.

Yeh 4.5's is what I want to stick with, more available, not as fine etc., I think transfer gears would sought em out, run 35 bogger no probs with no T gears, gotta hope he's still keen to swap now.
