|
|
Im fitting 31" tyres to my Vitara swb... what will the gearing be like after? is low still low?
OR is there a way of gearing the vitara down?
It a 100% off-road offoader, never touches tarmac and never needs to go very fast at all....
Thanks for any advice in advance. _________________ Vitara JLX 1.6

how low do you want to go?
a rocklobster might be an answer if you want to go REALLY low _________________ the car in front is a toyota...

its an ultra low 4wd setup thatll give you about 20mph flat out in top gear in 4wd.
theres a few companies offer it _________________ the car in front is a toyota...

You can't do a rocklobster on a vit can you? Just sj? But it seems liie too much work to me!
Dave suggested a trail tough setup? In a standard vit box? _________________ Vitara JLX 1.6

Hi, thats not a big enough change. It would have to be 5:1 or more if i were to bother doing it.... _________________ Vitara JLX 1.6
