So what is your opinion on the Trailgear dual case and 4.7:1 gears are they as bad as everyone makes them out to be?

I have nothing but good things to say about them.  I have not had any trouble with the adapter or gears, or anything that I have from Trail Gear.  If I was building annother truck I would not hesitate to purchase again.  The adapter is about three years old and has not done anything, but work.  When I pulled the rear case to put the 4.7's in, everything looked just like the day we assembled it.  I have only had the 4.7's for this season and so far they have been great.  Same with the twin stick.  

If you are going to get a dual case setup, I would recomend the BudBuilt crossmember as he builds a great product and can customize it with a drivetrain lift.  Plus he is a great supporter of local events.  Nothing against the Trail Gear crossmember, but I have beaten the crap out of my BudBuilt and it just laughs.

Here is another picture after the roll that I got from a buddy.  This is after we hi lifted the roof up so I could drive it.


Slight change of plans with the cage, I will be going with a 4xInnovations cage and putting a new roof section on.
