Chris,That gearing(2.45) seems very high.I am running 3.72 and would like to go to 4.10 at some point.There must be very different gearing in the transmission to be able to pull such high gearing.
Are you full time 4x4 and it sound like you have only high range.Please check your gearing for me,such high gearing just dosen't seem right for a 4x4.
P.S. Dalmer is not going to bring 4x4 to the U.S.
There is not enough sales here to make money.
They would have to stock parts,Train ALL the tech's
The numbers don't work.
That is why we are doing the conversions.
I guess that you could buy a euro spec 4x4 but you will NEVER be able to get it legal.
The gray market door has been SHUT!
I feel like i'm pissing in the wind here.Everyone keeps talking about wanting to bring a 4x4 van over.
Now that's pissing in the wind,cause it ain't gona happen.That's why we are doing what we are.(In case anyone missed it) We are importing the OEM 4x4 parts and converting U.S. van's to 4 wheel drive!
And as far as I can tell,We have the
ONLY fully functioning 4x4 sprinter on the road
As frank said in the video,you get what you pay for.
If you all don.t think that what were doing works,you need to look at the video again.
And I am sorry.QUALITY IS NOT CHEAP! Truth be told we are NOT it this for big money.We are making every effort to keep the cost as low as possible,and I know that it is more than most would want to spend.
Interesting thing happened at the show this weekend.Several people told me that they had priced 4x4 vans.Prices came in between $50 & $60 K with no interior.(GAS MOTOR) I was told.
Given that, they did not think our price was out of line.
And we all know how much better our Sprinters are!!!
Well,That's my rant for the day,I'm off to find some mud to play in!
