Automatic Vanagon 3.3:1 Ring and Pinion available soon...

[Butcher]

I too had Ed's transmission install a 3.27 R&P in a clients WBX6. They did a great job.

I would not wait for a larger cooler. Do it now. The temperature in Seattle is cool now. Lots of rain in April so you may not have a good indication how hot it will get.

Slightly used 3.27 R&P available. I purchased and installed the the 3.27, but there really just was not enough power for my Tiico + Automatic. Turns out the 3.72 is a far better match.

If you have a 1.8T or Suby Conversion, your automatic will like the 3.27. Let me know if interested. In Central Oregon.

What would you recommend for a little modified 2.1 dj engine on a westfalia, 3.73 or 3.27?

[Smiro]

@Albertoprop17, I would recommend my 3.73 R&P.

Cheers,

So after reading 21 pages, I would like to ask..

how many road miles/kms have people racked up on their 3:27 Ring and pinions?

Any issues?

is there an installer that will warranty their work?

I had one installed at Ed's transmission in Seattle. Although my clients Vanagon has an Oettinger WBX6 in it, they offered a complete warranty if there was an issue. Since the engine had a lot more power than stock, he said they would have to look at it before the would warranty it.

I put 5,000 miles on the Vanagon before I gave it back to the client [it was in boxes when I first got it]. I never had a problem with the miles I put on it. As far as I know, the client has not had any issues in the last 3 years that he has driven it.

Since there were no problems, I did not really need the warranty. It's hard to believe that the part would fail unless it was installed incorrectly. I have dealt with Salim several times with this Oettinger project and never did I suspect I was getting shafted. I lent him the worn 3.08 R&P that was originally in the transmission and after it was sent across the world so it could be copied, I did get it back several months later. He was a stand up person and everything he said was true.

Hello Everyone,

I have removed my 3.27 R&P to show you the quality and durability of my product after 60,000 miles. I am the only supplier who can prove my product is the best out there if installed properly, with the correct lubricant (no redline) and cooler (my cooler).

I will be installing this same 3.27 R&P into my differential and I will pull it after another 60K miles.

As a reminder I have 1991 Country Homes Camper with a 2.5 Frankin Subaru motor (165HP). I have also replaced the ATF, gaskets and screen every 2 years as recommended by VW. The gear oil I use is
Swepco 201 Gear Oil, 80/90 and Dextron 2 ATF or equivalent.

Looking forward to another trouble free 60K.

Cheers,

Hello Everyone,

I am down to my last 4 3.27 R&P. I do not know when I can get more. Supply issues are still a problem. Get yours before you have to wait months for more to come. Prices maybe going up due to Freight and duty costs.

Happy camping,
