[QUOTE="Qaddiction, post: 457433, member: 18430"] It's at least half alive! lol I went with 5.38 gears. That was the lowest ratio they offered. I would say the u-joints will be my weakest link, but I did up the size of them as well. 1350 front / 1410 rear. It has the stock transfer case. I plan on riding it out until something goes bad, or I feel the need to switch it out. Honestly, I need to educate myself more on the differences between the sport / rubicon / and atlas t-cases. I may need some seat time to see how the gearing feels and what the rig needs. I went with the e-lockers on this build. It will be my first experience with e-lockers. I have ARB air lockers in my other 2 rigs. I have not had any issues with the ARB lockers. Not sure why I went e-lockers this time, but I did. I also have similar high mileage on my motor. That was kind of what I was looking for in a way. I wanted to find a cheaper base to start with. Ultimately, I want to swap in a V8 with an 8 or 10 speed transmission. [/QUOTE]
