Curious on how you like the 4.88s... Must be a lot of low end grunt!
What ratio did you have before?
OEM was 3.73. so pretty big jump. Then intention is to run 35's once this set wears out and i have some time to trim the necessary room for them. Right now- YES! Very torquey. I will even say a bit too much, that it even becomes a lil jumpy in first gear. 4wheel low 1st gear is just silly, not dual cases silly, but still quite workable for crawling. To answer the ?, i like the gearing, but look forward to how it is going to be once I'm running the correct tire dia.
Since you now have lockers front and rear is their any point in locking the center deferential besides to disable VSC?
Good question. Honestly don't know cuz i have not had enough opportunity on challenging trails to play with it. I can say with the lockers, she can wheel. No tires spinning or stalling looking for traction in any way. Something i felt was the case with the center diff., it searched around looking for where to put the power then eventually mozied up and over.
Damn! I need to get out. This has been one of those years- been spending lots of time hiking and running the trails, not enough time wheeling them though.
Took on a few projects this season that have eaten up that time. They've been a handful, bit think it was worth it.
Spring, gonna be a good one
Really looking forward to blasting around the local deserts in the sunshine and seeing what trouble i can find.
