Have you ever changed the gear ratio in a transfer case?

 

Internet messing up due to heavy snow

 

I have rebuilt lots of power transmissions gearboxes and such. Have changed ratios in several.

 

How tricky do you think it would be to change the gear ratio from 2.56:1 to something like 4:1?

 

If we can find the right parts not hard at all.

 

This is all new territory for me now. Would that change the overall gear ratio or could it be done to only change the low gear?

 

Need to see internals of gearbox or schematics to see what input shaft drives first.

 

I'm sure there's an IPB somewhere on the wide webernet of the world. I'll see what I can find.

 

Looking for something a bit more comprehensive. Here's all I've found so far. My google-fu skills are being put to the test.

 

Saved the pic, going to look at it in the morning on the computer I’m beat and calling it a night.

 

Night Maner!

It can, and has been done. 4:1 and even 4.7:1. Now I'm leaning towards 4.7:1.

Here's the article.

Apparently Advance Adapters has a 4.7:1 kit.



That's the next step and it's going to be sick.
