3.73's and 32's?

[ezeedee]

would that work? i have an automatic trans, and stock 3.73's (D4 axle code on the door) i have the stock 235/75/15's on now. (i think they come out to like 28" tall)

just exploring (hehe, no pun intended) different lift/tire options.

thanks.

3.73's will work. It will be a little sluggish and your fun economy might suffer. 4.10's would be ideal for 32's.

I have 3.55s and 32s and it's not ideal but definately drivable.

v8 or v6?

v8 or v6?

I was going to ask the same.
Im on 33's with 3:73 with the 5.0 with no complaints.

 

[MountaineerGreen]

Its a 94, so probably is a v6

 

[MountaineerGreen]

I ran 32's on 3.73's. It wasn't too bad, just had to lock out the OD 35-50 MPH. That was a 5.0 though.

yea, ohv

Yea that 5.0 torque helps quite a bit

32's and 3.73's are definately not ideal when off-road...

I have trouble going up some hills while in 4-HI with that combo... Can't wait to do a gear swap!

 

[MountaineerGreen]

Ive got a 4.10 front pumpkin for $200 shipped, makes swapping easy.

Im saving for my XC road trip right now... explorer work resumes in September... but thanks for the offer man!

I ran 3.73's and 33's for awile, with the OHV. It was alright, not going to win any street races though. Still crusied on the freeway good, and got about 15mpg on highway that way. The trouble was getting it moving

did you have any power mods when you were running this (intake/exhaust or anything?) thanks.
