DevonGT Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Is it just the final drive that's different or is it the gear ratio's as well in the ep85 box?Compared to the ep82/91 box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevonGT Posted October 12, 2011 Author Share Posted October 12, 2011 So what are the pros of having a shorter 1st gear, if any?Also I thought the final drive was 4.3? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevonGT Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 The FD is taller not shorter, in which case the info on the front page of the 4-paw section regarding FD and top speed would be incorrect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 ep85 first gear is silly, you have to rev it right out just to get going lol. i wish i had the gt 1st in mine like WeeJohn Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DevonGT Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 Its possibly mine that is mixed up, I just copied and pasted it from old stuff I have saved.You need to strip the box right down as 1st is at the end of the shaft. Its a straight swap but once you are there.From the info I've found the FD would appear to be 3.7. 3.7 is taller then 4.3, shorter the gear bigger the number.Did you do it yourself or someone else, If someone else done it could you pm me the price if you don't mind? cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevonGT Posted October 14, 2011 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 Thanks for the info mate, that's great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
