This was the route I was going to take before the e-lockers fell in my lap. Actually I was going to go with Spartan front and grizzly rear.

SqWADoosh [04:19 PM]: *sigh* I guess Chris is right and I just need to wait until I'm in a place where I have a tow rig and trailer before I get this caliber of truck
Mudder [08:28 PM]:   not try to be a jerk, but are you serious bestgen?

The main reason i am leaning towards the HP elocker vs the automatic locker up front is because I can get it pre geared and just throw it in. I dont know if I can spring the money for the compressor and lines and install of the ARB, Id install the e locker myself. The automatic locker up front seems like it is the best option money wise.

You guys carry WAY more than I do when I wheel. It makes me feel like i dont carry anything. Kind of scary to be honest. I carry basic tools and stuff and thats it. Geeze

I talked to CJ today at marlin and they did double charge me for cores, but after he nicely apologized, they said I could just apply it to a HP Elocker in 5.29 and pay the difference, 200 bucks. The problem is that in order for me to install my transmission, I need to install my dual cases.Then I can mail the cores back to marlin and get my HP Elocker.  In order to install my dual cases, I have to install my rear lift. In order to install the rear lift, I need to gear my e locker rear third. In order to install the rear lift, I need to do the sas. In order to do the sas, I need to build my axle aaaannnddd...... have a HP Elocker... Life is tough
