XL-7 Tech. advice ?'s

[MetalToyMaker]

Thanks, appreciate the input BUT......that is the "axle gear ratio" or "final drive ratio" not the transmission gear ratio(s) nor the t-case ratio.

I'm trying to calculate rpm/torque for bigger tires. For that I need to know the hp/torque (roughly 180hp/180ft/lbs) of the motor, the transmission gear ratios, and the axle gear ratios (manual 4:30/1 or Auto 5:13/1). (^see the missing figures in the equasion?)
I need to get this figured to know weather or not I need to look for an auto or a manual to build.

I also want to know or verify the stock t-case ratio for calculating/guessing its 4wheel ability. This will tell me weather or not I just need to use the crawler gears from Calmini or if'n I can use the stock ones.

Am I in the right spot to ask these ?'s or should I try and find my answers somewhere other than Suzuki Forums?

Again, Thanks in advance for any help or a point in the direction of the information.

Thanks Limited. I don't mind being quoted, just don't want it to look like I said something I didn't.

What are the axle or final drive gear ratios for the 06 auto?
I may be able to pick one up in the next day or so if it don't get sold out from under me while I'm trying to find out the gear ratio.

Thanks Yaul!

The transfer case is chain driven..

Can anyone confirm his belief?

I sure hope your right XL7Limited.

Thanks again for everyones help, advice, and time.
