    Also, since the honda tranny already has a finaldrive in it and you are running that to axles that have finaldrives in them then the gear reduction is insane. Think about it people the tranny is setup to turn axles that are directly to the wheels. He is running that to axles with another 5.13to1 ratio. Do you know what the crawl ratio is on this?
    acctually i still have the 3.73:1 in the axles... the tires are only 31s, so i could easily go to a lower ratio for a larger tire... i think i figured the ratio at about 40:1 plus the mechanical advantage of the torque converter... its low, but she is able to comfortably run 40+ mph in overdrive... she likes going fast...

    Sorry I thought I saw you were running gears. Anyways, what lockers are you running or are they spools. Also, do know how much it weighs?
