Ok so i have tracked down some Xfer gears for my 90.

Mr automotive (32846688, warren) will 99.99% be taking on the production of the maxi xfer gears very very shortly.

have the option of buying their gears at 30% for $1650ish or 'possibly' going 50% for cheaper.

i'm thinking the 50% may be too low (3.54's and 35's) does anyone have this/similar combos?

I dont think it will too low. when you weigh up the 3.54 gears with 35 tyres and 50% reduction. the figures are very similar to having 4.1 gears 35 tyres and 30% reduction.

The biggest problem you might find is the overlap between 4th low and 1st high. if the difference is too greta you might get sick and tired of changing from low to high all the time.

Albeit i'm still gunna go 50% reduction just because of the wicked crawl factor.
