Are you sure about the cruise?
I had my 4:56's installed about a month ago and my cruise control still works!

Re: Gears are out!!!

I spoke with Chad over at Superior Alex and got a quote of, labor $380.00 +parts(how much is Superior charging for Gears?).... Does that sound steep?? Does anybody know where I can get a better deal on install? SoCal? I am looking to go the 4:10 route, Thanks.

Maybe it has something to do with having Big Tow vs Not.
I think I will look into getting a Big Tow flash to see if that is it what you have a XE does it have Big Tow

Its an XE.. But from the looks of his sig, I think he has he small mirrors..
Unless he has the offroad package, I'd doubt he had the BT 3.36 before

Re: Gears are out!!!

I've been under the impression for quite some time that aftermarket gears= no cruise control.

Not True. Did tt and superior 3.73 ring and pinion. I still have cruise control and there is no issues with dash lights.

Starting to sound that way. I don't think that any of the Hoopers trucks still have CC.

Re: Gears are out!!!

No, I spoke with Chad as I am going to get 3.73 gears put in and he warns that cruise control will be lost.

I will let you know also, that your factory cruise control may not work, after
swapping your gears out. I've had a set of 4.56's go into one truck, an it
not be affected. I just got a call from another customer this morning, that
installed 4.10's in his, and although no ABS lights came on...his cruise control doesn't work. Currently, I have no solution for this, as I have yet to determine why one would work, and another wouldn't. This is all information that I need to make sure you're aware of.

Re: Gears are out!!!

So this is the way im seeing it so far...
3.73's = No CC
4.10's = No CC
4.56's = Perfectly Fine Cruise Control

that is correct... my friend just installed Superior 3.73s and trutrac in a customers titan and the cruise was lost. not one tech or those in the know can understand why its lost. other than that Superior gears work flawlessly.

I won't know for sure for a day or two when my rig comes out of the shop with Superior Axle 4.10 gears and ARB RD-149 locker, but I find this discussion to be wacky. Chad called me the day before yesterday to hear what my results were and informed me that a customer cited an issue with their cruise control not working. I know 20 to 30 Xterras that have switched gear ratio to 3.36 to be compatible when they swapped in the M205, I know Xterras running Frontier ring and pinion sets, and not one ever cited a problem with cruise control. Why would after-market gears be any different than the stock ring and pinion...why only in very few cases did the cruise control malfunction...this has zero continuity and lacks logic??? My installer is an expert (builds dragsters, hot rods, monster 4x4), and I'll post my results here very soon, but in the meantime I'm siding with titan007 on this topic, and must assume installer error is the culprit for reported cruise control malfunctions.

Re: Gears are out!!!

A lonnnnggg time ago, I believe I read somewhere hear that there is a second speedo sensor in the rear axle..
In this event, if the two sensors (1st being in the tranny) dont match up, than the cc would disengage.

**anyone feel free to add FACTS, because im not sure if this is completely true
