ANYBODY TELL ME WHAT THE DIFF. GEAR RATIO IS FOR THE OFF ROAD EDITIONS FROM THE FACTORY.

OR WHAT OTHER OWNERS TEND TO SWAP THEIRS TO.



SEMPER

 

depends on the size off tie you will be useing. i have the 5.2l and i will be switching to 4.56s after the lift and 35x12.5x20r tires. 5.9l you might not have to go that ratio do to more power. the strange thing is i have 3.90 in now from the factory. from what i understand most non offraod rams without the towing pack didnt coem with that raiito. i think i kinda got lucky.

 

RIGHT NOW, IM RUNNING 265/70/17'S. JUST BOUGHT THEM
USED TO HAVE, 265/75/16'S. I THINK THEIR THE SAME DIAMETER.

EITHER WAY, NEVER COULD LITE THEM UP LIKE I WANT TO. ONLY WHEN WET![:@]




ONLY MODS I HAVE ARE K&N FIPK AND A CATBACK EXHAUST, "VORTEX CHERRY BOMB"
RUNNING SYNTHETIC OIL B/C IT'S SUPPOSED TO INCREASE HP.


WTF

 

yeah i noticed a diff too when i went to 20s and a larger tire. when i had the stock 16s and 265s i could light them up just thinking about it.now it takes alot more. i still need to do my exhaust. but first thing is to fix my rearend the ring and pnion are f*&ked. then im thinking of doing a tranny **** kit. i just changed over to syntheic oil too. not for the horsepower because i was told it wouldnt be noticable, but the the life of the motor. i just hit the 90,000 mile mark and dont want it to take a **** on me just yet. it runs alot better and idles a bit lower now when i change my gears im gonna run synthetic in the dif too.

 

i believe the off road came with 4.11's with the 17" wheels.

 

2nd Gen Off-Road 1500 Rams came with the 4.10 rear end.

The 2002 and newer Ram Off-Road 1500s came with the 3.92 rear end.

 

yes the off-road trucks with the 17 inch tires and the 360 has 4.11's. WHICH is pretty low-geared but the overdrive makes it a little better!!!! thank god

 

THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT SCOOP.

I WILL PROBABLY GO WITH THE 3.92'S, JUST TO SAVE SOME GAS ON THE HIGHWAY.

I HOPE THAT WITH THIS CHANGE, MY PIG WILL BE ABLE TO LITE EM UP

WE'LL SEE.

THANKS AGAIN
