Weir Performance 5.29 Final Drive Video
 
Greetings all,

I just thought I post a video after we installed a 5.29 Weir Performance Final Drive. I found very few videos when I was researching so this might help those thinking about getting something very similar. Enjoy the video.

Thanks for sharing. I know many people are looking for such videos, as I did before getting the 4.88 FD.

Below is the 4.88 FD from weir performance.

Sorry if I derailed your thread.

Awesome videos guys.
I was actually thinking of going 4.88 since I have the auto.

Hey @kitlives do you have a video of the speedometer going thru gears? Would like to see what your shift points are with the 5.29 Thanks .

I have 4.88s with the auto and love it.

@Lunatic , What is your RPM at in 6th? I use 5th mainly to just stay in the 3k range around 70.

Did you use the weir FD as well?

@kitlives
1st gear still useful on city driving, like stop and go traffic.
Do you pay for installation?

Love to see one vs like s2000 or something

2750 rpm in 6th gear @70 mph.

I just bought the ring and pinion from them. The shop that installed it did the rest.

You bough the installation kit? Pinion nut, shims etc.?

It's been so long ago now I really don't remember. My installer had all the shims.

That don't sound right to me. What size tires you running. I'm running 255/40/17 which is 25" dia. 78.6 circumference.

Somerandom18 02-19-2017 06:51 PM

Stock size 215/45. I was wrong though 4k is at 80. 70 is about 3500. Still a lot higher.
