has anyone got 35s on a standard 3L GU. just wondering how well the 3L will push it. thanks

Cheers

when i opted for 33s straight from the dealer, i expected to have to fix the speedo, but found it's only about 1.5-2% out. Are they designed to run 32s even though they come with 31s? If so, 35 aint quite so far away.

the only 3l with 35s I have seen was running aftermarket gears, but he used to tow a camper offroad so it needed the gears, I imagine you should be ok with the 35s standard, but I would suggest sticking to 33s unless you want to get serious then I would look at diff and or transfer gears before you throw 35s on it

tom0 and tiny thanks for the advise. might have to look into putting gears in it, once again thanks

I have 35s on my 3lt & it drives ok on the road, but mine is an auto. off road it still wasnt too bad but I ended up fitting 82% reduction gears to my transfer, But that was more to get some down hill control out of the auto

no way on the auto would i run for long periods 35's, gear lag was bad enough with 33's and extra pressure on boxes and boom.....

on the manual possibly but gears be ideal especially if doing lots of towing..

I know a few people that run 37s on their 3lt autos with no issues. some have done well over 150000km no dramas. The autos in GU patrols are fairly robust.

37s and no reduction gears? ifind that hard to believe? and how did they pull of the line doey as i would imagine??

The 2 that have the higher km on them both have a chip & 2&3/4 exhaust fitted to them. Only 1 of them has reduction gears fitted. The other is used more as a tourer(he just likes to look tough) & has double diff lockers fitted
