Gears

[Max85]

I am running 35's on my 85 bronco. I wanted to put 4.56 gears in the rear end. I was told that if you change gears in the rear, that you have to change the gears in the transfer case and in the front. Is that correct?

Yes otherwise transfer case problems will result.

SAY WHAT...? :huh:

"if you change gears in the rear, that you have to change the gears in the transfer case"

Been runn'n 456's for 14 yrs. .....no mods to T-case

Obviously, the front diff. has to be same ratio. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Just to make sure you understand the responses,

1. You do not make any changes to the transfer case.

2. You need to change front and rear differential gears to the same ratio. If you don't you will have an interesting experience the first time you put it in 4x4 ( .

Good luck,
