[QUOTE="TBItoy, post: 711315, member: 1384"] Don’t give me any credit as to actually “knowing” anything molaugh I ran 4.10 front, 4.37 rear in a Toyota for a while, worked fine. It *seemed* like it made it easier to steer on tight trails (welded f/r), almost like micro front dig... which makes sense because the rear travels a shorter distance around a turn. I set up 5.29s in the rear of a buddy’s truck that he was planning to SAS... 8 years ago. It’s still got 4.10 ifs front and gets trail wheeled and “mudded” all the time. Definitely not a real comparison to a buggy, but it does kinda work... Aaaand rc rock crawlers... very common to overdrive the front but they proportionally weigh about 1/4 what a real rig does (1:10 scale crawler 12” wheelbase 4.5” tall tires weighing in at 10lb) Just if I was in your shoes, and looking to gear the axles in a hot rod buggy, I’d opt for dropping the rear a bit lower to try it. Worst case scenario you sell the used 4.30 and 4.56 gears and go 4.10 or 4.88 in both. [/QUOTE]
