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.

I had 38's on my lux for a while. 2.8turboed with 5.29s in diffs drove em easily. :lol:

Yeh 5.29s dont last long though!
Im running 37s with 4.5 ratios and a 2.4turbo not to bad on road just forget 5th gear. off road is fine although im running t-case gears.

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.
