Great Basin
Rovers was started in 1992 and is primarily owned by Bill Davis.
Great Basin Rovers specializes in Land Rover products that have a
special emphasis on durability,
reliability and
performance. We have been
Land Rover enthusiasts and avid off roaders for 20 plus years in
some of the most rugged and remote areas of the western United
States, where major mechanical failures can be extremely
inconvenient. We have seen and experienced first hand some of the
mechanical short comings of our beloved Land Rovers and our
experience has proven to us that it is possible to significantly
improve the durability, reliability and performance of the Land
Rover both on and off the road, while at the same time retaining
their unique character. We place our emphasis on drivetrain
upgrades for Land Rovers. |

One of the frustrations with owning a Land Rover has been the lack of choice in
the final drive ratios. A solution is now available. GBR now offers an
alternative gear ratio to solve this problem - 4.10 (10 X 41), which splits the
two factory ratios almost exactly in half. It lowers the overall gearing of
later model Rovers by 12.5% but actually feels greater than that because at the
same speed you are operating at a higher RPM and are further up the power curve.
This is an ideal ratio for later model Rovers, which are geared a bit on the
tall side (3.54) to start with, particularly if you install oversize tires or
live at a higher altitude. You will notice the benefits immediately, 5th gear
becomes much more usable, towing is easier and you wonąt be downshifting nearly
as often. In particular, vehicles with automatic transmissions benefit because
you gain back some of the power you lose with an automatic transmission. You
will have more power and acceleration under normal driving conditions and you
will have more power and control in off road conditions. To quote one of our
customers’ “The 4.10 gears transformed the vehicle.” These gears are
manufactured as a direct replacement for the later factory 3.54 ratio with 24
spline pinion gears. You do not need a spacer ring and only need to replace the
pinion flange on earlier vehicles with 4 spline pinion gears - mid 1993 Range
Rovers and earlier. The 24 spline pinion flange is actually an upgrade for these
vehicles as the greater number of splines reduces backlash between these parts
and hence reduces shock loads in the drivetrain. All of these gear sets come
supplied with 10 new grade 8 ring gear bolts and a new grade 8 pinion nut. We
can also supply all hardware to complete the installation - preload and pinion
height shims, seals, bearings and gaskets. We manufacture these gears with a
higher specification steel, shot peen them for stress relief, and radius the
teeth to create the highest quality, strongest, quietest 4.1 gear set on the
market. These additional processes are not even found on genuine O.E.M. quality
gear sets, only the finest, specialty race applications.
Install Kit Includes – 1 set
- pinion height shims, 1 set - bearing preload shims, 1 pinion seal, 2 drive
flange gaskets and 1 differential gasket
Master Install Kit Includes - This kit is
recommended for vehicles with higher mileages and in addition to everything
found in the install kit includes a complete set of differential bearings - 2
carrier bearings, 1 inner pinion bearing and 1 outer pinion bearing. |

If
your projected use includes a larger percentage of off road use - particularly
at higher altitudes, tires larger than 33 inches tall or you just want the
lowest gearing you can economically install in your Rover - 4.75 gearing may be
appropriate. As noted earlier higher numeric gear ratios sets sacrifice some
strength compared to the stock 3.54 ratio. To compensate for this we have
changed the tooth count to 8 X38 compared to the 10 X 47 tooth count of a normal
4.7 ratio. The smaller number of teeth on the gears means the teeth are thicker
and hence stronger. These gears are manufactured as a direct replacement for the
later factory 3.54 ratio with 24 spline pinion gears. You do not need a spacer
ring and only need to replace the pinion flange on earlier vehicles with 4
spline pinion gears - mid 1993 Range Rovers and earlier. The 24 spline pinion
flange is actually an upgrade for these vehicles as the greater number of
splines reduces backlash between these parts and hence reduces shock loads in
the drivetrain. All of these gear sets come supplied with 10 new grade 8 ring
gear bolts and a new grade 8 pinion nut. We can also supply all hardware to
complete the installation - preload and pinion heighth shims, seals, bearings
and gaskets. Like our 4.1 gear sets we have all of these gear sets shot peened
to stress relieve them, radius the teeth and specify a higher grade steel to
produce a higher than O.E.M. quality product. These are the strongest, and
highest quality super low ratio gears that you can buy for your Land Rover
anywhere at any price.
