Well there goes that idea. Lol

 

I think I'm going 4.56 on 33s when the time comes. Maybe even 4.88 with a gear vendors overdrive unit. That would be sweet.

 

What's this overdrive unit you are talking about?

 

Sweet ****.... that is outrageous. Guess I should feel pretty lucky I know 2 guys that do this all the time. I really want to learn how to set one up.

For comparisons sake, all in, I was 800 dollars for the 3.55 swap in my Mustang - paying someone to set it. That was pretty much a complete overhaul. I have a set of 3.73's and a trac-lok diff waiting to go in the old truck whenever I get the gumption. There are TONS of guys around here in the Mustang club, etc. that will set up a R&P for 300 bucks.

 

Haha feeling you!

Only gears for front & back 3K?? Thats over 2k for labor WTF?!?

Jupp, FRRP are running below Motive Pros and Yukons!!

I used Randy's calculator --> https://www.ringpinion.com/calculators/Calc_RPM.aspx

65 ~ 3000rpm or 2100 with OD
75 ~ 3600rmp or 2400 with OD

4.88 would be even higher ;-)

I would run:
33" --> 4.10
35" --> 4.56
37" --> 4.88

 

It's pretty much like a splitter on a big rig. Allows for a shift in between each gear including the final gear acting as a double overdrive. There's some pretty cool videos on YouTube about it.

 

That's the boat I'm in. I want the 4.56s but I would have to go up to 35s to justify it and then my tires would rub on turns. Lol so many decisions.

 

That sounds pretty cool. I'll take a look.

 

Here in NM people are very proud of being able to work on 4x4s, kind of like Raptor tax except here they half *** everything.

 

To be kind of fair that was r&p front and rear with master overhaul kits for both and labor.
