Anyone got rock crawling low gearing in there transfer case, or have they been in a vitara running these gear's.
How low do use find the gearing an what tyre size ya running..
They offer some serious reduction, i'm think even on 33's they will still be geared low enough to spin the 33's...?

Any feedback on people's experience with the reduction gear would be awesome..

Didn't have them in my escudo, but one of the guys in the club did and run 33s no worries, the only thing he complained of was that the crawler gears didn't alter high range, so road driving was a pain and his 1.6 struggled. The v6 might be ok though?

Very Interesting mate, Do you know if he broke many's cv's running 33's with the crawler gear's. I would say the v6 would do a better job of running the 33's on road but my not like the up hill climb's

We have them in our Vitara. Made a massive difference to the level of control we could use on lumpy ground (eg rocky riverbeds). Getting wheel speed up in reverse was a bit of an issue though.

Running 31's, but planning to step up to 33's.

like all escudos, the front end was still the weakspot.......
he put a steel diff head in it last i heard
