    I told you above. If you had 4.12's in your diffs and we were on the same size tires we would run the same rpm in 1st and top gears. The middle one would be a little different though. Haha That's just how different the auto gears are from the manuals. 4.88 vs 4.12.

    Oh jeeze... haha you haven't seen my build thread have you... haha I haven't been to St. Anthony but I have some smaller dunes about 30 minutes from my place that I have tore up many times. The extra torque from the gears in 4Lo is awesome! 4wd is a must for me though. Probably a mix of running skinny mud tires with low gears, lots of power and a lot of weight cuz they dig really bad in 2wd. But 4wd rocks and I get around great! Anyway my build thread is full of vids and pics of me hitting the dunes as well as rock crawling!:D
