Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hi all im building a vw baja convertible onto a ong wheel base zook i will be running 31 x 10 .5 and i belive if swap to a 1 liter transfer it bring my ratio's back so it will run better and not not be over geared because of the 31 inch tyres
and advice greatly appreciated

thanks rod

not quite, but youll be better off... however most choose to do tcase gears... gives you a perfect high range reduction and makes low range, well, actually low =) haha

Im running calmini 5.14 gears - 18% high range reduction and 180% low range. others run the 6.5 gears for even further reduction.

Is it being kept as 4x4? and same size front and rear tyres?

as you may be better with diff gearing if not.

yup 31's and a transfer case if i didnt want 4wd why on earth would i go to the hassel of putin it on a zook chassis

i dont want to go stupid off road as i have an over powered raised 60 seiries for that this is a toy that will be registered

i have got a shorty wheel base 1.3 5 speed zook
and a 1.0 4 speed rust bucket oops i mean zook

i will only use the bit i have if i can sell some bits i dont need to buy other bits i will but an extra low is not needed or wanted just want to make up the power loss from the 31,s by using the 1.0 transfer interested what the out come will be i will be be happy if its not quite as low as it was as i will prolly fit a g16a later and have a nice all round vehicle

have fun

swap the 1 ltr diffs they may be 4.1's but check first with lower gearing a 1.3 is all you need.

can we have some pics of this bug it sounds interesting

ok all did not know the diffs were a lower ratio.
The 1 liter is narrow track and the 1.3 wide track, are the centrers swapable or do you need to strip them and swap crownwheel and pinion .
i also have got my hands on (pick i tup this arvo) long wheel base ute chassis , i was hoping the body ounts were the same so i can fit the floor /trans tunel from the short wheel base on it and does anyone know the length of a rear tail shaft for the lwb
thanks rod

1.3 is both narrow track and wide track and the centres wont swap between 1.0 and 1.3

1ltr w/t stockman diff center is swappable with w/t 1.3
got 2 spare sitting in my shed.
