If your interested might wanna speak up I told him id take 2 if it goes thru. http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/viewtopic.php?p=1901375#1901375 I'm the guy... Is there any interest in these gears ? High pinion 5.29 for the 8" front diffs.Mitsubishi do NOT make them. They can work with both 9" and 9.5" rear diffs because the 5.29 rear gears for the 9" also fits the 9.5". I tested it and it is 100% compatible. _________[...PART TIME REBEL...]_________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAiNfq_k1r4 Re: 8in HP 5.29 gears [Re: tribolas] #998926 06/07/10 06:10 PM Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 16,227 Bay Area, CA off-roader Web Wheeler I'm sorta interested. My dilemma is to go with 4.90's (proven, right size) or these 5.29's (unproven custom cut fronts, and smaller/weaker? rears). What do the rest of you guys think? Wouldn't the smaller 9" rear be weaker than a true 9..5" rear end? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Off Roader 98 Montero with the Winter Package 89 Montero minty clean and reserved for overlanding trips or Cars and Coffee events 96SR (3.15:1 xcase, 35's) gone to the rust gods 96SR Build Up Thread Old web page Old web page Re: 8in HP 5.29 gears [Re: off-roader] #998927 06/08/10 11:50 AM Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 6 Greece tribolas Need a Spot Quote I'm sorta interested.

This is where you must focus for reliability issues. The difference between 5.29 and 4.90 ratio is 8%. To get an idea , if you have 5,29 and 31" tires changing to 4.90 ratio you must go with 29" tires to get the same results. _________[...PART TIME REBEL...]_________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAiNfq_k1r4 Re: 8in HP 5.29 gears [Re: tribolas] #998928 06/08/10 04:36 PM Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 6,134 Gilbert AZ, US. TOASTY Trail Leader what about just using the LP 8" front to get 5.29's in the front? 1999 Montero SAS'd on Kings and stuff 1998 Montero trying to get a V8 Swapped Re: 8in HP 5.29 gears [Re: TOASTY] #998929 06/08/10 05:04 PM Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 6 Greece tribolas Need a Spot Quote what about just using the LP 8" front to get 5.29's in the front? It's possible. If you have an 8" HP front diff you can replace it with an 8" LP and use MB241981 (5.29) gears. With these HP gears you will need ONLY the gears.No propshaft and bracket modifications. _________[...PART TIME REBEL...]_________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAiNfq_k1r4 Re: 8in HP 5.29 gears [Re: TOASTY] #998930 06/08/10 05:07 PM Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 659 Monroe, Wa zarktheshark Rock Warrior Question, the 97 MS used a 9" rear, right? I did that swap last year. I have the small front diff right now, but I can get the 8" front from Curt I bet (stock 89 v6). is the that 8" a HP or LP? My rig could really use some help turning my 34's.
