Transfer case info was created by Old Neil
I have a year 2000 G13BB jimny manual transmission, I've heard the automatic transmission versions transfer case low raitio is a lower than the manual transmission version
Can anyone confirm that, if they are different how do i find out the part numbers and if they are interchangeable
Thanks Neil

All of the manually operated transfer boxes (UK/EU), regardless of transmission, have the same gearing.

Reference the wiki:
Transmission/Transfer Ratios

I started out with nothing & still have most of it left

Thanks zukebob, just that i was talking to someone who initially had reduction gears in transfer case but couldn't handle the noise then fitted a transfer case out of an auto jimny ,I've spoken to other people and backs up what you said

Wish I had a good suggestion about the noise. Yakusa has reported the same issue after a regear of his transfer case. I haven't seen any recent updates from him about the noise but he may add a comment to the post.

The 2005+ Auto's Transfer Box is lower, but it's "electric" (buttons and actuator) so I'm unsure how anyone fits that into a manual (transfer box) stick model?

I suppose the actual gears inside might be interchangeable?... :unsure:

You could of course "just" change the diffs to lower the gearing and compensate for larger tyres -

 

Later diffs (final ratio) in an earlier Jim'

That's esactly what I've done with The Boogie -

 

As I'm running 16" GV alloy wheels with ~ 29" tyres...

Hmmm, if you just want to lower the low ratio side of the box, the auto VVT transfer box would fit the bill (as the high side is the same ratio) BUT it's electric / button controlled... You'd have to see if the gears were transferable to a manual stick transfer box?

Would it be possible to take the whole assembly with the actuators and have it run off a simple switch without the control module? Don't know, I've never tried.

Hi Lambert
Sounds like i might be barking up the wrong tree zookbob is saying internal ratios of transfer case between manual and auto gearbox jimny's are the same i was also posts from this forum dating back to 2011 talking about auto transfer case and bigger tyres

Hi, No... 



The auto transfer box has the same high ratio side, and the low side is lower as you originally thought...

BUT it is a switched model, not a stick shift one...

I'm trying to find out whether the gears inside would be transferable from the auto's transfer box to a manual transfer box, and have asked a friend who breaks the odd Jimny whether he has an auto one, as this may prove ideal for The Boogie to give me a lower gears offroad...

No, friend who breaks Jimnys hasn't got one, and says they are sought after and so command a high price too :(
