    great pics! Thanks for posting them.

    So you did ECU swap, which makes sense if you have a 5 spd in that 1st gen.

    Are those 37" tires BTW?

    How do you like the single case with the 4.7 and the 5spd? I have a 2spd Atlas with 5.0 gears in it, which is close to what you have. Toyota purists harrassed me about not going with duals or a 4spd atlas LOL. I like a single case and 5spd tranny for the most, but wanted to hear from your experiences. Do you find that it is low enough for what you need?

    It serves me well I'm not a hard core rock crawling type of guy but doesn't mean I don't walk over rocks I like it better than stock tcase it's keep my engine running when doing moderate trails to most the lakes in Cali.
    Edit-yes I'm running 37s

    Really nice pics man.

    Your rig seems very well built and functional. With a little sheet metal cutting you could fit 40" tires in there :D

    But the axles might not like that :eek:
