LD50 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 I have been noticing the extreme lack of power recently when doing snow wheeling in all the fresh powder we got. Would the most beneficial upgrade to my '95 m/t with 32's be the expensive gearing change or would a lock-right be a better bang? I have heard bad things about the lock right in incy conditions too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 New gears will give you some power back, the Lock-Right will give you more traction in the rear. Apples and potatoes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuong Nguyen Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 (edited) New gears will give you some power back, the Lock-Right will give you more traction in the rear. Apples and potatoes... agreed. What's your rearend ratio. I know on some manual equipped with the 4.375. You could swap out to the 4.625s from the auto pathy rearends. Easy to find. I think you mean 4.90s hehe. I'm running the 4.9s out of an Xterra with my 33s. helps a bit on highway speeds.

Also, is the 4.9 Xterra a stock setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuong Nguyen Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 You can find the 4.9s in 2wd Xterras. I've come to find that some Xterras had open diffs with 4.9s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
