Ax15 OD gear swap

[Swampy]

This might be a dumb question but can you change the 5th gear ratio on an ax15? The stock ratio is .79, which is a little too much for my 2.5 to push 35s. I was wondering if you could swap the ax5 5th gear ratio which is .83 I believe so it should help with 5th gear power for driving. I don't know if its even possible or if it'll ruin the reliability of the ax15.

I asked the same thing but the other way around. They are all gonna tell you no. I barked up that tree recently. Didn’t end well for being curious. 

 

Here's that tree.

Need more gear, or just run it in 4th gear.
