Mog portals to cruiser axles (1 Viewer)

[Radd Cruisers]

Worth the time and effort or is the pinion output shaft to small?

The overall gear ratio with Cruiser axles...3.70 being the lowest multiplied by 2.13 of the Mog Portal gives you an overall ratio of 7.88:1 at the ground.

Too low..lower than a Mog axle itself.

No reason to do a hybrid if yoiu want gearing that low in my opinion.

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Wow, that is low.............


Guess it would not make a very friendly daily driver.

So your 9 inch has gearing options around the 2.0 variety?

 

[wngrog]

2.75 x 2.13 = 5.89 Nice and low and with OD it runs 2000 rpm at 60.

There was an offering for 2.50 in the 9" and used sets are readily available, but I wanted to go low, but not too low.

Hmmm, sounds like a good setup.

Off topic, do you think that Sun Ray will be selling those twisties you have in your link system?

I think those are a simple and strait forward setup and I am not a big fan of the heims.

Most of the people that have done toy/mog hybrids tear apart the housings..

IIRC, one of the competition rigs is running minitruck/portals..and having housing issues. Great idea, but the Toy midsections just aren't beefed enuf...

Sunray sells them, yes. $500 will get them....enough for both ends of 4 control arms.

They are the best thing out there for strength, impact resistance and they are quiet.

would the toy housing be a problem with a full floater axle?

Solonoid operated transfer reduction hubs, thats what we need, 1:1 on road, 2 or 3 or 4:1 push of a button, inside the hub, as well as having the transfer case

 

[bad_religion_au]

gunna build it for your prado then? that'd show up a few of the hardcore guys that whine about IFS, if you had a system like that

Or how about a 3 speed Atlas or equivalent? Kind of like a big truck browny aux tranny. Under, direct, overdrive.

Not bad for such a great upgrade to my suspension, I like the looks and workings of those tons better than the old heims.
