yeah, I'm currently running dual stock cases w/ twin sticks conversion in the rear case for about 2yrs and it has done me alot of justice so far.

In my opinion you don't NEED lower gears so I'd wait until you can get the best price IF you're capable of doing the install yourself.  I'm not so I purchased a full 4.70 rear case and ran a single 4.70 case for several years.  You'll love the lower gears, but I've found that the most useful gear is really 1st gear in 4.70 low which should be similar to low-low in a stock double case configuration.  The lower gears often don't have enough momentum for climbing.  My experience is almost all in Moab so it likely doesn't apply to all wheeling.
