Gear install in D35, some advice needed

[Andres629]

Alright, so I found some 4.56 gears locally... now, I'm going to need a bit of help from you kind folks to install 'em! I know you've got to have the shims, and some of that paint (can't remember what it's called) and from what I recall, a 14 in. lb running resistance or however you say. This is my first time dealing with gears, so any help is greatly appreciated!

a gear change would make a good tech article...I had a step by step from Extreme 4x4 on my DVR but it appears to have been mysteriously deleted.

EDIT: Wow didn't even know that was there...

Well, I didn't know 'til I got there, it was the entire front end for $60 CDN. I guess I didn't need to do the install after all. Thanks for that though RangerSVT, I didn't even know that was there either! Haha.

It's koolThe tech library is often overlooked...I browse it often to see if there is any mods I can benefit from it...

Spend some time reading and find a good tech article that can guide you through it. I think there are a couple good ones on pirate4x4.

Gear setup is not something to rush into. If you assemble it improperly, you could take out the whole gearset and cause yourself alot more headache...

Some links to such are right here in our FAQ too (scroll about halfway down).
