    Slow Down an M37

    See my calculation of the crawl ratio above. It was derived from the following source:https://liftkits4less.com/blog/heres-how-the-mahindra-roxor-compares-to-a-1948-willys-jeep which claims the Roxor has about the same crawl ratio as the M38. Not true? Thanks

    Slow Down an M37

    Thanks. Did not find an external crawler box, but did run across this: https://www.thecj2apage.com/forums/teraflex-low-18-3-15-gears-in-dana-spicer-model-18_topic44041.html This looks like a big deal, big enough that--for me at least--it would make better sense to sell the Roxor and get an M37.

    Slow Down an M37

    No worries; I'll take the door off. Roxor has no door, and I fold down the windshield except in the very worst conditions.

    Slow Down an M37

    Slow Down an M37

    I do not. The way I spray in the Roxor is that I creep down the fence line in 4WD LOW, and lean out of the cab with my sprayer and hose down the weeds and trees. The Roxor goes too fast too really soak them, so I'm on and off the clutch frequently. To slow it down by half--as I calculated...

    Slow Down an M37

    Here's data on Roxor (a comparison of it to the WWII Jeep): The Roxor has much taller 3.73 differentials, but nearly makes up for that with a 3.778:1 first gear ratio. Those two, combined with the same 2.46:1 low-range gear as the Willys yields a crawl ratio of about 35, just below that of the...

    Slow Down an M37

    I live on a farm, and use a Roxor to manage pastures and spray weeds. Roxor is a great vehicle, and is just about exactly a WWII Jeep. Problem for me is that it goes too fast, even in 4WD low. I want to be able to crawl down the fence lines and lean out with my sprayer and murder the weeds...
