The_Magicians_Eye Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Can you just change the gearing in your transfer case rather than having to change the gears in both the front and rear dif? And do they offer new speedometer gears to correct it for lower gearing? What is a good lower gear setup that would still work fine on the highway?

silverton Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 The speedometer gear is in the transfer case, so I don't think it matters what gears you put in the transfer case. they make lower gear kits for our TX-10 though. High will also be 1:1 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Magicians_Eye Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 I'm wanting to lower the 2WD for towing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverton Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 i dunno if any companies make a different gear set for the HIGH position of our transfer case. your best bet is finding a 4.9 gear set from an Xterra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Yeah, pretty sure the transfer case goes between 1:1 (H) and whatever you have in it for low gear. So you're stuck either doing the diffs... or adding more power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1996pathfinder Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 i got 31's on my pathfinder to.. so would it be easier to change the gears in my stock transfer case or just get a transfer case from an xterra and bolt it on in place of the stock one?

The_Magicians_Eye Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 Will that work and does an EX have a lower hi gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewebster Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 As mentioned above, this isn't going to do what you want. I don't know what 1996 is asking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
