a wet box would mean that it needs a rebuild....basically worthless

[THK Matt]

go with just the MC07... can you use the stock crossmember and add a skid to it?
and then get the budlite a little later?



just food for thought.

[Doof]

thats a good idea... just fab my own x-member

ill look into that. ill head out to my old work on weds and hit up the bone yard and see what i can find for x-member materials... might be able to just do that and save another 200 bones .... good idea yourahoe

Yep but it would be equivelant to some really low geared axles.

like how low? dunno:
too low for highway speeds?

Im trying to remember how to use duals so that you have to really gear the axles to run 35-37s
i thought you can.


man i jack everyones thread

[tom w.]

Well don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure that in 2HI your transfercase is 1:1. So even if you have duals it's the same as without. The only difference being that (assuming a dual ultimate 2.28 + 4.7) you have the option of stock 4low, 4.7 4low, or 10.71 4low.

EDIT: AJ remove the first post of this page...

I used to drive my jeep in 2low all the time on the ranch and it didnt have real low gearing at the time.   I couldnt break 45 on the street.

Your correct however the question was

Which is what I answered...

With 37's at 3000 RPM in fifth gear, 2low (2.28:1), your top speed (assuming a W56) is 41MPH

thanks guys.. so basically, i need gears? or more POWER

and for a note... ive never been able to hit fifth gear in low gear yet. it sounded like it was grindin in the TC.
so i shifted back into 4th... so i got to 35mph.. (4low)
maybe its cause my TC was about to blow up... which it finally did!

[tom w.]

Or you can rock 37's and 4.10's like sillywilly and lilbuddy
