I was wondering what gear's are offered for my sidekick.i'm running 33" tire's and wanna gear it.Is it easy to find after market gear's then trying to find stock lower gear's??
-
Factory gears ratios.....4.30, 4.62, 5.12, 5.38, 5.62. The 5.38s and 5.62s aren't real common to find, but they are out there.
The used to make 5.83 aftermarket gears, but they haven't been available for several years.

What year's and motor and tranny do i have to look for to find the 5:38 & 5:62's?

5.38s are only found in 91 4 doors with the 1.6 8V engine and 5 speed.
5.62s are only found in 89 2 doors with the 1.3 carbed engine and 5 speed.

I am guessing you have 5.12s now? If so, then 5.62s will be the better choice. They still won't get you back to "stock" gearing with 33s, but they will be closer than 5.38s.

Any one have any lower gear's then my 5.13's for sale??

no, not all, , only the ones with a carburated 1.3 5speed came with the 5.62. i believe these to be the first production run in '88, that of course released as '89 model years
also, just for fun.....
keep and eye on the interiors, there is a EXTREMELY limited number of the '89 that had a brown interior, also from real early on in the model year.

Probably worth it for just the gears. Swap out for your 5.12's and sell it back off again. :D

Here is a list of 3rd member gears and what they are in that might come in handy for you if you choose to change yours. I found my 5:12 / 5:13's in a Pick and Pull for $65.00 each. Maybe this will help you out some....

If it is a tracker, then it won't have a carbed 1.3 (at least not from the factory). Only a select few 89 sidekicks had the carbed 1.3.

Correct.
I actually had an 89 sidekick about a year ago that had the carbed 1.3 and brown interior. ;)

So no trackers will have the 5.62 gear's?

Not from the factory. The only way they would have them, is if someone swapped them in.

I was on a website and noticed they had 5.83 for the tracker/kick! I want to say it was Motive gear?? I'm sorry I can't remember for sure!

Better check to see if they actually have them in stock. 5.83s haven't been made for several years, for the rear of trackicks.
