    Yeah if you go the ECGS route, 4.56 gears (front and rear) + ARB rear locker is gonna come out to ~$2100. Ask me how I know :(

    Haha thanks :D

    Yeah...I don't know what all that means. What does the crawl ratio mean? Higher number=I move slower? Define "highway speeds". Are we talking 65mph or 75mph?

    basically yeah, too lazy to explain right now. but if your gear ratio is low enough it'll do this

    i was talking about legal free way speed so yeah 65mph but if you are jason then it's more like 105

    2500 rpm at 65 sounds not too fun.

    What do you mean, not too fun?
    I'm at about 2750 at 65mph stock. It's not too bad, I just don't go very fast...as you saw after the slick rock trip :p

    Anybody know if the rubicon staging area on the Lake Tahoe side is open in the winter. I know there is a road from Tahoma and is a short drive to the trail head. It's paved and goes through some housing developments . I would like to drive up there when I'm staying in south lake this weekend just to check it out. Any help would be appreciated .

    Thanks

    Brett

    KTVU just rolled tape on this. All aerial shots-looks like they hadn't moved the kid yet. Reading the story, I wish I could say it seemed unusual but it's pretty common around here. Pretty sad on so many fronts.
