Ring & Pinion swap to 4.57 backlash
« on: May 24, 2011, 12:57:35 PM »
Anyone know the backlash on stock samurai axle with an upgrade to 4.57 ring and pinion gear set.  Gears don't say anything.  Should it be the same as the stock 3.73?

Yes, .008 is ideal

Ya, that's what I said  ::)   LOL, I stand corrected, .008 is stock spec
and what Trail Tough set my 5.83 at, but use the recommended spec
