Topic: 5.71:1=5.89:1 gears

[rEdnECkwHeE1eR]

Do the 5.89 gears in D44 have the same prob as 5.71 gears in toys? Would it be ok or would 5.38 gears better choice? I just dont think 5.38s would be low enough for 39s.

I run 4.10's and it is plenty low

With 2 times the cylenders and 3 times the hp.

;D   :up:

off road I would not run anything lower than 5.29/5.38 unless I had a D70

if you need lower put it in the tcase..
