    Yea..NO...not in theory..not even in practice !!

    To make the transfer case/TOD work in harmony ...

    ...front AND rear diff need to be equal.

    AND..all tire sizes need to equal.


    You have a VERY limited set of options of diff gearing on the 10 & 12 bolt
    Isuzu diffs.
    ( so..the "matching the ratio"...is not possible..you get as close as you can!)

    I run 4.77's..It close! for my 35's..but could be better!

    If you have different diff front to back..
    ...you"ll
    (A) explode the TOD..
    ..and
    (B)..grenade the transfer case...
    and
    (C) never get going!..at all!


    Please ...do correct me if I'm wrong..
    .....but I have re-geared several VX''s

    I think I have this right
