    4.56 for sure, I would like to have a sport rear end with a airlocker but I doubt that one will come true

    I regeared a couple months ago to 4.88's with an ARB in the rear and I'm diggin it. Haven't had the chance to use my locker yet, can't wait to get out and use it!!! And you never know man, just gotta keep an eye out for good deals. My buddy on here RileyLAFD just scored front and rear lockers, never used for $1000! That's more than half off haha!

    Yeah I just went though your build thread, looking pretty awesome! Thats a hell of a deal, Im always on the look out. I would like LT before I regear but I guess it comes down to what deal comes by first

    Lot of people I spoke to before regearing said the same thing. A lot of people who went 4.56 that I spoke to said they wish they woulda gone 4.88's instead. I love my 4.88's

    Yeah thats the bummer, It would be easier if I could sell the parts I have now to offset the cost. Its like 4k+ to make the switch
    Realist shit I've heard all night, I just wanna do hoodrat things

    hmm, maybe before I bite the bullet I can ride along in both a 4.56 and 4.88 truck

    I'm going to sell my current setup for $1600, then it's $5400 for everything to go LT.. So it helps a bit.

    Chandler, did my brother let you know his schedule? I know you were saying you have some longer hours this weekend but you might need a hand with some work on the rig?

    Yeah for sure!! Let me know a week or so in advance and I'll get some of us NW guys together if youd like and at least go have a beer or something, if not a Tahuya (ORV park) or snow run.

    To be honest I never got back with him, I have been pretty lazy these past couple of days. But really I just need to trim a couple of items and bash my wheel wells some more. How did you run your whip antenna wire into the cab, I've been thinking about picking one up

    Definitely should, at least if you can see them.. Haha it just started snowing at the higher elevations here but even a trip over the pass on a rainy day can be fun. We'll give you all the good spots to visit!

    Edit: oh by the way you'll hate 35's on stock gears here.. So many hills
