  1. Woah this thread got way more complicated than it needs to be.

    Simple math fellas.

     

    (Stock Tire Diameter)/(Stock Gear Ratio) = (New Tire Diameter)/(New Gear Ratio)

     

    Just a little cross multiplication will do the trick.

     

    OR

     

    Throw all that math out the window and take it from me.

    For a DD on 33's with an Auto Trans, Run 4.9's

    For a DD on 33's with Manual Trans, Run 4.63's

    -You will get better gas mileage on the highway with this as it will slightly lower your RPM's at highway speeds.

    I was getting 21MPG Hwy in the Pathfinder on 35's and 4.9's w/ manual trans.

    My rear axle already has a Detroit in it. Did that a few years ago. Been hanging with guys that are locked both front and rear. I can tell my hill ascents would be much smoother if I wasn't open up front because as its bouncing it looses traction and power goes to that side. The loose side then comes down gets a bite and the other side slips. Kinda propagates the bounce.

     

    Bouncing!? Losing Traction!? sounds like someone needs a locker & crawler gears!

  3. Arb sent out a press release a few years ago and there is a video on YouTube somewhere comparing the 2. I also used to get emails from China all the time from them trying to sell them to me but bottom line is they are just that. A Chinese knockoff..= crap.

     

    I highly recommend a selectable locker. Save up and get an ARB for the front. TJM offers one for the rear which is slightly cheaper.so consider that if anything else.

  4. RedPath88,

    thanks for revisiting this situation again with the mod team. I totally understand where you're coming from in not wanting the boards cluttered with ads but I'm sure there is some sort of middle road compromise solution that would keep NPORA members happy as well as include non-intrusive ad space for vendors that are trying push this niche market forward.

    Please keep me in the loop on this subject and feel free to give me a ring, shoot me an e-mail or heck even come knock on my door if something changes.

  5. ok cool thanks guys.

     

    Well, Although we've got the vendor section of the boards in here now I feel that it would be beneficial to have site sponsors not just for monetary support for the board but to help out nissan parts vendors like myself. Selling parts to the nissan community is a niche market and it's difficult to advertise. we're limited on options of places to advertise that would reach our customers. Otherwise the only other option we have is to stay active on the board all the time, not that I don't want to stay active on the board but there just simply isn't always something going on that's worth talking about not to mention all the other boards that people like myself would have to keep up on all the time which would be a full time job in itself. NPORA is a great board and I've got some great supporters here, I just wish I could kick NPORA some cash and get a banner ad.
