    Yep. I think I have a buyer for my Softopper, just need to get a box that will fit it and a shipping quote. Also, I need to track down my c-pap supply guys to release my supply info to the VA.

    Right on, get what you were asking for on the topper? Does the VA outsource your CPAP stuff?

    I should be plus shipping once I get that figured out.

    The VA issues supplies directly, plus the VA mails medical supplies, too.

    Good to know. I'm new to sleep apnea. Just submitted my claim for it last week and I'm still waiting for the "clinic" to go pick everything up.

    Thought this was pretty damn cool and worth a share. Seriously looking forward to running the Rubicon Trail.

    Awesome man! So with triple sticks, is one for 2wd/4wd and then high/low and low/low low low, or hows that work?

    Oh boy that's exciting, you gonna put the spare in the center or offset to one side?

    Morning Matt!

    Morning Maner!

    Morning Robert!

    You guys all have a kick ass day



    So one will be 2/4wd, one will be high/low at the transfer case, and the third will be high/low on the crawl box.

    The left stick should be high/low on the t-case, the middle will be high/low on the crawl box, and I believe the right will be 2/4wd. So it will able to do high/high for 1:1, high/low for 2.57:1, low/high for 4.7:1, and low/low for 12.08:1 in 2 or 4wd.

    With 1st gear at 4.171:1 and 3.73's in the diff, I currently have a crawl ratio of 40.1:1. The crawl box will bring it up to 187.92:1 with 3.73's.

    I'm leaning towards 4.88's right now but here are some other diff gear ratio numbers I worked out.

    4.56's - 229.73:1
    4.88's - 245.86:1
    5.29's - 266.51:1

    It's gonna be slow. Really slow. And make many much torks with the same horsepressures.

    You too brother!!:rofl:

    Thats pretty impressive! Youve got me curious, with adding a crawlbox and the transfer case sticking back further from the crossmember, do you have to modify the mounts or the cross member at all to support that added weight?

    Also, what size tires do you see yourself going with down the road? I could see some 37s in your future:spy::devil:

    Marlin says you don't need to but they recommend it. So, that's the plan, I'll add a support for the crawl box similar to this

    efec5356-f89d-4b27-ae1e-1e328111d5b7.jpg 23957fa3-232d-41b8-8551-3e357bf4a8f4.jpg

    37's are the end goal for me. I'm planning to do Marlin's Rock Crawler Long Travel and MarRack. I love a SAS but they are difficult and pricey to do right. The RCLT can be bolted up on a Saturday and will keep the IFS for on-road comfort.
