    let's talk gearing.......

    thx.......... thats what i was trying to figure out, w/ the auto tranny... alot of people say; it'll be fine it's a auto... it'll stretch out vs a stick. i didn't really see it that way, at 65-70MPH again, thx === and some of the things i learned in this post is, 4.88's are weaker...

    let's talk gearing.......

    I know the need of and for lockers, it's the damn 3.07's w/ 33's thats playing havoc with me on trails. it's like i'am in 3rd or 4th gear - when i'am in 4L & 1st... my original question was; *(hoping someone else was running this combo) would 4.88's cause some high rpm's on the hyway? 02...

    Elbe Hills Rock Crawl - help needed

    You'd think... with actually only 2 areas for us in this location - tacoma / olympia - puyallup / etc... we could get all the local users / clubs to all step up this 1 time, to really show and put forth a effort and get a new section of trail re-done and made better. you figure out the dates...

    heres a shot going up lefty. it's got that nick name from being a hill climb that seems doable to the offroader looking at it from the bottom, it's the point you don't see 1/2 way up that suddenly turns sharp left and then gets steeper going up. being open f/r and gearing that makes one...

    i was out wheeling today....... :eeek: the problem is that I'am way down here.... and most of you guys are way up there! but some of you have wheeled with me, or showed up down here to play. i like the site here, regardless if some don't like me. fawkers don't even know me. just know of me...

    Elbe Hills Rock Crawl - help needed

    thats kinda what i was saying, it's better to get in there and re-work that trail and then bring in enhancements as it developes. it's a matter of fact for us, to use the idea that the trail is not being used, due to the eaze of it. and that it needs a little more difficulty or better obstacles...

    Gibby, *i wanted to bite my lip on this one, but.... what are your limits, redtape on this project? years have gone by, with all the other improvements always predeeding what "we" the offroaders more or less wanted, TRAIL improvements like this proposal... You & others should give a little...

    let's talk gearing.......

    that sounds smart, money sensible too. i guess it's all in how i wheel it, i know the limits both on the street and off, but if i stick the wife in it, and she dumps the gas peddle on some rocks / holes... snap, and daddy's under it changing axles. i like the idea of just going in debt for...

    let's talk gearing.......

    i was wondering about RPM's, w/ the 4.88's yeah still having the D30/35 combo, and trying improve isn't that smart, but for the time being, this gearing combo ain't working either. AAAAAArrrggg ok, so it's either 4.56's and stay at 33's or just grab a D44 out of a Tj <--- like this...

    Dude.............. You have to see this fawking hill, pictures never do it justice. *(LSS) it starts out fairly straight & straight up, 80-90% straight up. then after about 200-250feet up it has a twist right at the top, that kicks you over and leans you over the edge, then you have to hop a...

    let's talk gearing.......

    That was sort of my thinking as well, a little more beef on the R&P's and spare axles... use the AtlasII to get the gearing down there... *I think running the 4.10's w/ the Auto and 33's would be fine on the hyway, be almost normal. was just wondering about RPM's w/ the 4.88's either...
