Hi folks.
This has been asked before. So please go easy on me
I have just ordered some locking hubs to do away with the vacum hubs for my 2006 jimny, and hopefully to change the transfer box
So on to my question WHAT transfer box can I fit
As we all know 2006 jimny has the electronic transfer box. All I want to know IS what manual operated transfer box can I fit to replace electronic box
They are all going to be 1.3:1s instead of 1:1 which means that you will be massively under geared if everything else remains standard. It does mean that you could have 35 inch tyres if you want or you can run out of revs at 60 mph. To bring it back into line you can start altering the diff ratios or reverting to the older main gearbox but it is all an increase in time and effort. Alternatively you can stick with the push button. It all depends on what you want from the car.
