Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey all, i know most people run 4.11's but i was wondering if anyone runs 4.7s, im trying to decide which way to go as i don't want to go down the engine transfer way, but the old two door on 35's could use a little help. And as the car is a toolangi tracktor i'm not concerned as i don't do very long drives.

Cheers!

Do you mean stock 4.7 gears?

If so, then no. They are terribly weak and will probably implode at the first sight of a tyre bigger than 29".

No i was going to get the KAM gears from LRA in melbourne, thoughts?

or go through dave ashcroft...

i have some ashcroft 4.11's sitting here new in boxes, asking $900,

Cheers matt, but wondering why you have not used them? why did you opt for them instead of 4.7s

I run lr 4.7's with 35 mtr's with detroit in the rear and a tru-trac in the front thats been been pegged . 5 speed manual revs just over 3000 at 100 k

excellent idea !

I am very keen to get these to the Australian market and as such will better any KAM price, these are also stronger gears because of the helix angle and material,

i got the 4.11's to put under my rangie with 33's, some people say the 4.11's match 33's gearing, others say 35's

right now i dont have the spare time or money to set these into my car, if i were to, i would look into pegging the diffs, but no idea how much it would cost,

so therefore im leaving my standard gearing setup leaving me the option to run some 32' A/T on the road

the 4.11's are new still in boxes if interested

hey dave not interested in your diff gears (done a toyo swap) but i'll happily be the first to test and punish your force 9 diffs downunder!! broke 1 30 spline chromo and twisted 2 rears so its time to see if your 9's stand up over here!!!!!!!

go on DARE YOU

p.s. sorry for the hijack

4.11's match 33's, 4.3 match 35's but 4.3 isn't a gear that you have been able to get with any reasonable ease for a Rover in the past which is why they are run with 35's.

I run 4.75's from great basin rovers in the U.S. with 35's & they work well.
been in 2 years no breaks yet, touch wood . There pegged & have a
detroit in the rear & arb in the front.
