Post subject:  just bought a suzuki sierra, concerned about gearing

hi i bought a suzuki sierra 1991 model (1.3l) and it has 31 inch mud tyres on it.

i am looking to get it to go alot slower for some offroad work as low range is a bit too fast sometimes and have been told that putting a 1.0L transfer case is a good way to achieve this. im basically just looking for some opinions and advice on this modification. i have the transfer case and also front and rear diffs which i was also planning to put in to lower the gearing. how would this affect my topspeed as well? ill probly have a ton more questions hopefully this will help some people out.

oh yeah this is also largely because i dont want to destroy my clutch as well.

Hey mate.

Just go straight for 4.9 or 6.5 transfer gears and leave the diffs alone. Its a tried and true solution.

X2

Only need to change the diff ratios when you can't get enough high range reduction from the t-case gears.

hey

not sure who ridzilla is sorry dude maybe i bought it off him

fatzook i have a welded diff and need a rego inspection so i need it removed

monley i guess the transfer case would be enough. how would it go on the highway if i did both though?

It would be doing more rpm @100kph than what it needs to be doing. You may need to do both if you went 33s+ but 6.5s and 31s it will be fine on road. What sort of terrain do you drive?
