M920 Ring and Pinion

[crestviewsport]

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I can get new ring and pinion gears for the M920. I would like for the truck to achieve 70-75MPH and get rid of the 6-17 ratio.

Check the data plate....I think they are Dana's. You can then check with Dana and see if other ratios are available. If they are unique to the vehicle you are prob out of luck.

why not put 1600s on it ? mine does about 74-75 mph with them on.

Would not M915 rears swap in?

If so I would love to snag an A/C system out of an M915 to put in my M916 and maybe buy one and
part it. They come up near me a lot, I can not swing the full rice myself.

Keep me in mind.

The rears on the M915 are different than the M916 and up.

Ask Soni. He changed his in his truck as well as a 18 spd swap I believe.

With yours running that speed, it is bouncing off of the governor? I'd like to get it where I can run about 17-1800 rpm at 68-70mph if at all possible.

If my memory is correct im at about 2100 to 2150 RPM at 75 which is about 1800 for 70 Its been sitting for the last year . But getting ready to streach its legs again soon

I do not know about you guys but I am thrilled Mr. R_Racing is making posts
herein this forum! I have spent HOURS reading past posts from gifted men like R_Racing.

Unless I have been under a rock I have not seen this masked man for some time here!

Now we just need to get the elusive Mr. SONI to break his silence and I bet if
he does it will be in a BIG WAY w/ a 1070 tweek or three! (Rumor has it it
made off w/ FOUR 1070's in the recent past, ya suppose he is making a 1070
Caterpillar ? Eldgen too!

Glad to se you back Mr. R_Racing ! ! !

I just put a ring and pinion in my M916. Everything was standard over the counter parts, my buddy who did the rear told me afterwards I could have gotten different ratios.

Do you mind me asking where at they are over the counter? I have not thought about checking the parts store locally but if you know which place you got them from I will be in there tomorrow checking with them. If you don't mind sharing what was the cost of the parts?




R Racing, I appreciate your input on the speed and RPM. That sounds exactly where I would want to be with both rpm and speed. Now to see which avenue is cheaper, tires or gears.

It was either Transaxle or Truck parts specialists. They are the 2 we use. I didnt look at the bill...I was annoyed enough at that point.

I believe 75 is just a bit ABOVE the speed rating of the tires.
