Question NP205 with 4:1

Is there a 4:1 kit for the NP205? In all my searching, the only thing I have seen is the 3:1?. Are there limiting factors on the NP205 not allowing a 4:1 ratio?

Nope, a stock case doesn't have room for 3:1 let alone 4:1!

The 3:1 needs an aftermarket housing which = $

lomax kit is new gears and case. you reuse all of you stock bearings, plates and shift rails/forks. you can buy a rtr from them but supposedly its $2300. the kit alone was $1300-1500 last i checked.

just check and our local shop sells the Lo-Max gears and case for $999...not a bad price, when comparing a rebuild 205 sells for $750-900 depending on Trans Application

Sure they do.

It's called a doubler.

Checking into the doubler is what got me interested in the NP205 4:1 or the lack of a 4:1. A doubler w/NP203 and D300 with a 4:1 is doable.

been there, and posted there. some good shit there, too. the problem is that these newbies clutter up the board with SHIT posts. the worst part of THAT is that we continue to LET them.

SIRCH.

that should be the keyword of the day.

Looks to me like some of you "veterans" might start with spell check first, then maybe we'll let you discuss Nubes and the fate of Pirate4x4...

the word was typed SIRCH so that the guys that cant read or write in the english language could figure out that it meant SEARCH.

Most of the retards that have 3 or 4 posts and think they are hot shit cant speeel wurtha sheet anyway. You want to make it easier for them to understand, you gotta speeka there lingo franco, Franko.

dont make me start gettin all linguistic on your we taught ed ass.

so, FJDave, if you have anything of merit to add, I would suggest you can start with the speeel cheecker, or figure out how to use sarcasm in a post.... without posting a fawkin smiley, doooood. Get it? Got it? goooood.
