    Yeah, that should be much better! Bigger gears = bigger stereo!!

    per Isuzu's Website, my 2000 VX's warranty was only transferable between family members, oh well, nearly all used cars I've gotten did not have a warranty,
    at least now I have something else to fiddle with in the hope of getting the VX more tolerable noise-wise

    Joe Isuzu, I don't know your VX at all... if it is lifted and you have some meaty tires and if you are going to have to tear apart your 3rd members you might want to do many things at once. It is such a big job to get the front 3rd out. If you plan ahead and extend the diff brackets and install lower gears to compensate for your larger tires you would be oh so much more efficient and perhaps more pleased. The performance and longevity improvements are worth the time, effort, and expense, IMO. Just a heads up you prob'ly already knew about!

    Zeus, allow me to introduce myself, my mechanical experience is very limited except for oil and brake changes and I tend to keep my vehicles as stock as possible except for small performance improvements
    now, with that said, my VX is about as stock as you can get, the only thing I've done is replace the speakers, replace the brakes/rotors and brown-beaded the cargo hold
    I will most definitely NOT be fiddling with doing differential work myself, we want to keep VX's on the road not on a flatbed en route to the dealer, haha
    I understand based on my prior comment how you might have thought I was going to do it myself and I appreciate the head's up on other work to be done at the same time, but no, this is definitely something a professional will look at
