electric transfer case for manual vs automatic

Dear Good day
I swap R72 gearBox in my Automatic 2013 non-vvt 1.3 with standard effect
I got ain a big problem that Cruise speed very high RpM which 4.5 in 120KM
They told me because you have an electrical transfer case for Automatic has a high ratio
if we swap to the electrical transfer case for the manual car will be better in a highway


so the main question of how I know this transfer case is for a manual or automatic car
because I go to the scrapyard, it seems all from the outside are simpler and seller they don't know from which car come

there any number so I know the different

I know I need to replace pinion but now let start with transfers case which cheaper.


thankyou Best Regards

In high gear ( wich the case is most likely shifted to when dismounted) you can turn the input shaft 1.3 times for one turn on the output shaft on a transfer case for an auto VVT Jimny.
For a manual VVT Jimny it is 1 turn on input equals one turn on the output.
It is easier to see if you make a mark on the flange.

See image or link for other ratios.

First, thank you for the respond
I try to turn all in a scrapyard
all it seems the same ratio
I will this week
best regards

Does it mean if I replace my manual vvt transfer box to any other variant then my HIGH range will dramatically slow down? Also, in order to keep the existing H/L ratio I would need the auto vvt box? If so, people who own vvt jimny with crazy big tyres should not really bother to go down the route of rocklobsters when any box would do the trick?

On one sense yes, but as always it depends where you started from. If you started with the worse ratio set-up then you can adjust it by mixing and matching transfer boxes and differentials and achieve what a Rocklobster achieves. Depending on where you source the parts from you can also do it fairly cheaply, particularly if the seller/scrapyard dont realise the potential of what the part gives to you.

I thought for a while that a push button (VVT) transfer from an auto jimny would do it for my manual jimny, but I would need bigger than 31" tires to make it drivable at highway speed.
Prices of the corresponding parts to make a 4.16 SJ transfer fit my VVT jimny like the cradle, drive shafts, diffs and/or maybe transmission made it too expensive even when I had the 4.16 case lying around.
So for me the cheapest and best was to buy a gear set for my exsisting VVT push button transfer case to compensate for the 235's.
I like the push button and vacuum hubs as well..

So the 4.16 case will still go in my SJ and i do not have to make another one
