I was going to use an NP465 and a NP205 that I have, and stuff a Klune V in between, but since I saw your rig, I am totally rethinking the possibilities. :rockingout: Shorter, lower ratios, less weight. I'll be putting all this behind a 235 hp 4.3l, so it should hold up just fine. I have an SM420 and a Toyota t-case already too.

So, how do you like it? Would you change anything? :doh:

I ask because there is a guy around here with a buggy called "Digger". He's running the NP465/Klune-V/NP205 set up that I was planning on running. And he says he wouldn't change a thing. And he has a 502 CID Chevy crate motor running on propane in front of that. :booya:

if I were running a big block it might not be so great ;)

but, with all the yota stuff you can't go wrong with this setup..

With that said I did sell the jeep (more like gave it away :( ). I don't know anything about the kluneV 205 stuff so I can't speak for that but I might be looking into it since I have yet to find an adapter for the C6 in my latest rig..

I guess the question would be, would you run the toybox again if you could? :confused:

well I never ran the toybox..

the toybox is the reduction box - all I ran was the adapter. I guess I ran a version of it but yea - definately. It was a slick setup!
