I've been reading now for 2hrs and still can't make my mind up on gears. I have a stock 302, 3speed, with 3.50 gears and 35's with a 3 1/2" lift. Its a dog around town and I'm agonizing over which direction to go with gears. I also have an NP435 to put in it so I'm keeping that in mind for the future. I'm leaning more toward a daily driver, I started building a trail rig but after beating the crap out of it after I finished restoring I had second thoughts. It may see the trails on ocassion but I don't plan on abusing it.
I bought and built a samurai for that addiction.
Seems as though half the board is for 4.11 and the other half is for 4.56's. I'm concerned the 4.56's will be to low for daily driving.
Also, I've read that the front carrier will need to be changed with either option, but some of the parts dealers offer a "thick gear" for the front. What exactly does that mean.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be great, thanks.
