Gearing Q's
Posted: Mon Nov 20, 2006 6:11 am
Im after christovers advice on diff ratio's into a 1 litre.
My question is if i put lj80 4.6 ratios into my 1ltr can i run 31's that read 30.51"?, because this is what im working off:
New tire size
old tire size x current gear ratio = New ratio
30.51
27.10 x 4.1 = 4.614831372549019
And with that being a bit lower than standard my 4 speed is going to be ringing its head off to do 100 Km/h
And will i still have to change the side gear between lj and sierra?, because you told me about the lj50 r&p you would have to change the side gears or put the r&p into the sierra centre, do lj80's have the same size axles in the back as a sierra does?
And i wanted to know have you got standard transfer? because i read somewhere on here that the 1.3 rockhoppers will fit into the 1ltr transfer! is that correct? btw i know you have lj50 4.9's
Sorry i rambled with so much sh*t but i've got lots of Q's and everyone i talk to either dont want to listen or dont know what in the hell im talking about!
Thanks
p.s What do you think of Sumitomo Sarengeti M/T because thats what im planning on putting on because there cheap enough and did pretty good in the 4WD monthly Muddie comparo!
