5.29's will be great. I'd suggest going duals not just a single case with 4.7 gears. Other then that it sounds like a very trail worthy dd.

For a DD lock rights are good cause you wont eat up tires on the street but from what i have been told its better to run them in the front only because the pins that hold them together break and they don't make the upgraded pins anymore so you will just keep replacing the stock pins over and over. Also for around the same price if ordered off there website aussie lockers are supposed to be a little bit stronger.
