Dana 300 4 to 1 gears

[hoggie101]

Think it's worth it to put 4 to 1 gears in my 300 while I have it out I feel like I don't need them opinions please

[Luke95]

I would say yes, but you also use the Spor principle when driving so it's a wash

I like the 4:1 ratio, but at the same time if you've got tall gears in the axles you may not need it. If I were running 3.55 gears or something it's a cheaper route than regearing axles.

I wouldn't bother man. I don't even feel like I need it with a manual.

Knowing several others who have gone from stock to 4:1, with a 4.0 nonetheless, I bet you'd change your mind if you could experience it.

Matt, with Reds and 4:1 I'd keep the 32 spline output in the back of your mind... Might be fine though. Not much harm in seeing what it will take!

[konastinky1234]

True, if you were to experience it who knows. Now you have me thinking.

All the cool kids are going to 4:1... just sayin.

I'm pulling the 231 out of my YJ this weekend to put a SYE on it and thought about a 4:1 kit, but I've got a 4.0 with 4.88 gears so I'm going to just put the SYE in for now and see what I think. I also have a D300 that is flipped and twin sticked sitting in the garage along with another 231 so if I feel I need more I'll build a doubler on the bench and swap that in later.

For the cost of the 4:1 gears you could put a doubler between the trans and d300. Only cost a little bit more. Then you'll have the best of both worlds.

There are a few kits that use half a stock 231 case and custom adapter plate.

That's what I've been looking at doing. I want the YJ on the road though so that will be a later mod

Probably have to flip the 231 if you do a Box-4-rocks

If you do it, don't use teraflex. Ive seen/been told that the 2 piece design they use causes a lot of breakage. My 300 has jb conversions 4:1. My buggy isnt running or id tell you if they were worth it.
