Ok got my heavy duty transfer case cradle/mount yesterday. So i painted it, of course.....blue. So today I tore my transfer case apart and put in the 6.5:1 crawler gears and all new bearings in it. tomorrow I will be putting it all in. Then test run Saturday 4/6/13

Dave, that is so cool! What was the crawl ratio before re-gearing?
=====
I had to go look it up, I think it was 2.3:1. All the spec sheets I can find (internet & my service manual) say gear ratio in low range is 2.268. So i guess that means (rounding up) 2.3:1
Oh, this new setup will be a "stump puller".

Lookin good! I like the blue. The gears will make a huge difference. To calculate th e crawl ratio you multiply your first gear ratio, your low range and your diff ratio togeather. Mine is 4.43*4.3*4.88= 92.96:1. The number you came up with sounds too small. Good job on your t case
He only gave the case ratio.
Looks great David. What will your overall crawl ratio be?
Stock =
New Blue =
Lol
Tom, the only stump for me is the answer to Carl's question. I'll I know it creeps slow and I like it.

OK Tim (the fountain math man) I gave him the numbers I think are right. First gear 2.40, transfer case 6.5, diff 4.56 He came up with 71.136
Wait......that's not right, Revised transmission number 3.65, Transfer case 6.5, Diff 4.56 = 108.186
Smoking!
What size are your bushings? Length ID and bolt. Where did you get them?
They came with the mount, Yes I bought this one.... I can measure in morning.
That's a crawl ration worth having, for sure. Now you got me wondering about mine.
