What gear ratios on a KZ to turn 35's?

[Donkey]

Been searching but not winning, what is the proper diff ratios on a KZ to be able to turn 35's? Please help.

Don't know about the ratio's, but that will be at least another 3 rows of brick above the garage door!

Hi Donkey
What is the standard diff ratio and tire diameter/circumference? At what RPM do you normally change gears?
If I have that I can calculate the ideal replacement diff for 35”s. You may not be able to get exactly the same but it will give you a good enough idea.

there are only two ratios available for the front diff on your IFS, your current 3.66 and the 4.55 used in the 2.7I and 3000D. The 4.55 will work perfect with the 35's, but you need a 4" suspension and a 3" body lift to get those in. With 33" tyres you can get away with only one of the two.

I did exactly that a few years ago on "Kwagga 2" we had 4.55 ratos, 35's on 10" rims, 4" pro comp suspension and 3" body lift

when you say a 4 suspention and 3 body! what does that mean in mm? or how does it work?

4inch + 3 inch= 7 inch!!!

1 inch = 25.4mm, therefore:

7x25.4 = 177.8mm!!!

geeze that's a lot
what is the width of 35's?
35 10.5 15?
what would one have to change to put those on a SFA

35's op 'n 15" rim kry jy nie 10.5 nie, jy kry wel 12.5(318mm) of 13.5(343mm).

so jy kry 35 12.5 15? Kan jy die origional rims gebruik?

Thanks guys for the input guys.

@ Hoppy - what is the standard ratio on the KZ? Should I go 4.55 or 4.88?

@ Thabo - already fits in the garage

Will report progress on my other thread about the panelbeater

Thanks guys for the input guys.

@ Hoppy - what is the standard ratio on the KZ? Should I go 4.55 or 4.88? FIT 4.55 SEE UBOVE

@ Thabo - already fits in the garage If you put 35" on you wont fit it in the garage...

Will report progress on my other thread about the panelbeater

What are you trying to do to that TZ of yours.....
33" is already big enough....
You gonna make it really thirsty....
