Revolution Gear & Axle Nissan H233B Rear Axle 5.13 Ratio Ring & Pinion Set

If you're looking to significantly change your Nissan's gearing for larger tires or heavier towing, a new ring and pinion set is the way to go. This 5.13 ratio set from Revolution Gear & Axle is built for the H233B rear axle, commonly found in many Nissan trucks and SUVs. Changing your gear ratio is crucial when you add larger tires, as it helps bring your engine's RPMs back into their optimal power band, improving acceleration and reducing strain on the drivetrain.

Revolution Gear & Axle is known for making well-built drivetrain components. This set is manufactured to precise specifications, ensuring a solid fit and reliable performance. A 5.13 ratio is a popular choice for those running 35-inch or larger tires, especially if you plan on doing any off-roading or towing. It helps compensate for the increased tire diameter, making your vehicle feel more responsive off the line and reducing highway cruising RPMs, which can also help with fuel economy compared to being over-geared.

When installing a new ring and pinion, it's important to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure carefully. This typically involves a period of moderate driving without hard acceleration or heavy loads, followed by an oil change. This process allows the new gear teeth to properly mate and wear in, ensuring long-term durability and quiet operation.
