|

I have a Suzuki X-90, and am currently running 35" tires with the stock 4.625 ring and pinions. Obviously, I have next to no acceleration. I do not have the money to invest in the extremely hard to find, and very expensive 5.7-5.8 gears. I also am going to be putting on 39.5" tires on it soon. This got me to thinking. Can I just drive around (on the street) in 4wd low, and either remove the front drive shaft, or install manual locking hubs, and drive with them unlocked, with the front driveshaft in? The low ratio in the transfer case is 1.82:1. According to my calculations, with the 39.5" tires, while driving in 4wd low, my RPM's would be just a little over what the car is from the factory. This way, I do not have to purchase any ring and pinions gears. So my question is: Are my gearing calculations corrects, and will it work, and will it hurt anything driving around in 4wd low with the hubs unlocked, or the front driveshaft removed? Also, how do you post pictures on here? Any input is greatly appreciated.
