TT vs. Cal vs. RRO
« on: October 23, 2006, 10:10:45 PM »
ok, im talking Tcase gears

calmini and rro are not making the gear right now soo.....



what does everyone think of the TT gears?  will it give a slower crawl then a stock sidekick in 4L with stock tire then a kick with 32's?  a little lower the stock would be nice

thanks alot

BTW: how is a service and quality of there stuff?

Didn't Zig get his from Aus? maybe the same place. AFAIK Calmini gears are sourced from RS Manufacturing in the UK.

mighty kong is the aftermarket  t-case mount if you run really low gears u should run it! What gears are u planning on using?

I might be wrong but I think hes talking about a sidekick. The mighty kong is for the sami.

Rhinoman, not calling you out, but the CALMINI gears are NOT built in the UK. In fact, they are the only US built 1-piece transfer case gears for Suzuki (Samurai and Sidekick).  Just for future information.
