Dual Cases
« on: Mar 06, 2009, 07:46:02 PM »
im confused about dual cases. first of all, all i need to make one is an adapter or is their more? besides another t-case. second if i had two stock t-cases what would my final drive ratio be? would it be slow enough to turn 37's and finaly are the 4.70 gears worthy to install is it better having two different ratios?

thanks for all the help guys :thumbs:

with dual stock cases it will give you a lower crawl ratio and will be able to crawl with 37s

with duals with a 2.28 stock gear and 4.7s it will still allow you to crawl with 37s just at an even lower pace

btw what motor cause i know with my v6 i had to get a trans adapter

First off, you would seperate one of the t-cases into its two sections, and make some minor modifications to it.  This would become your crawl box.  The only shift options this would have is hi and low.  Then, using an adapter, you would bolt up your complete t-case, which would still maintain the standard J shift pattern.  This gives you 5 forward gears in stock 2hi, 4hi, and 4low, as well as low 2hi, low 4hi, and low 4 low. 

2nd, your finally drive ratio is dependent on which gears you are in obviously.  To figure out your  lowest ratio, it is simply

1st gear x 2.28(stock t-case) x 2.28(second t-case) x axle gears = final gear ratio. 

Mine is 3.92 (R150) x2.28 x 2.56 (chain drive t-case from v6) x 5.29 = roughly  121:1 
 
If you had the 4.7 gearset you'd obviously multiply that into the equation instead of one of the 2.28 gears.


It would indeed be slow enough to crawl with 37"s.  Marlin used to have a speed calculator on his site, not sure what happened to it, but if you poke around online, you can find one that allows you to input all the variables above, including tire size, to figure out what speed you'd be moving at at any given time.

I am probably going to get banned for this, being as it's MCI Forum and all.
