Looking at some gearing ideas for the vit
I have 4.2:1 in the vit case but it doesn't do high range
Wat do u recon of running a stock Sierra case behind the vit on with 4.6 diffs and 31 maybe 33
Do u recon it would load up the Sierra input to much when the vit is in low and sierra is in high
Wouldnot use 8:1 very much but 2:1 in the Sierra case would be nice on the beach and on dirt roads where 4:1 is to low
Would the tale shaft angle be to bad wIth the offset out put the vit is a lwb so the shaft is pretty long

Also would it be better mated or devorced

[Zook_Fan]

you would have to run it devorced. a better solution would be to get a pair of 5.12 diffs which would help lower high and low range.

or even better some after market diff gears.

duals is alot of work and not going to be great in a vit

[got_bar_work]

I have 5:12 and 5:83 are to prone to damage

If I were to do duals in my vit I'd use a second vit case. IMO it would be stronger than the Sierra case

Tanshi:
Why would duals in a vit not be great? IMO gearing is good and once it's setup another stock transfer can be had pretty easy if it everlet go. if it's a 1.6 vit it will already have 5.12s and I'm pretty sure there arent many if any aftermarket diff options

Jmo though

my big issue with it would be that, unless you put reduction gears in one of the cases as well its not a great deal of gearig for the work involved,

also the offset of the rear diff will give you drive line issues, just not really worth it.

[inbits]

Using A Sierra transfer you would get the driveshaft issue but using a second vit one I think would be worth it IMO. joeblow runs vit twins in his Sierra and as far as I know he doesn't run reduction gears in either of them. I could be wrong though

[joeblow]

again......best option.

granted!

[got_bar_work]

I looked at that but ur stuck with a 6:1 low then and 4:1 is to low for some things as it is but not low enough for other stuff that's y I thought that the Sierra case would be good as it gives the option of a 2:1 low 4:1and 8:1

[royce]

you know when you are in low you can jsut change up a gear if its too low

[got_bar_work]

Best thing would be if Joe made 1.4:1 portals for vits

[tanshi]

with a standard sierra case how do you get 8:1.

vitara low range is 1.8

1.3 sierra case is 2.2

that give a low low range of 4:1

[got_bar_work]

I have 4.2:1 vit gears
