However, this only reduces the low range, high range remains same obviously which means if you ever put bigger rubber you either have to put 4:11's or do the high range transfer change too. Im no mechanic, but this is my understanding.
How would this go?
TC 1.003
MDE low range
Dif 4.7
with GNK Overdrive
No way. The diffs will break with that ratio. IF you want to run 4.7's then Rover diffs are not your answer.Quote:

MDE crawlers if you run big tyres when offroad and stockers onroad.
KAM make 4.7:1;)Quote:

Dunno, but my KAM 4.1's never broke and they seen 2 county CV's to their death:DQuote:

Hahaha thats funny as! Just as a random aside.. What is so good about county cv's and why are they so much better than stockers?Quote:
