hint, if you want a lower low range but not 'rock crawling" low then get a t/case from an auto HJ60 and swap in the gears. the final crawl is the same as if you changed out the rear gears to 4.88... i have done this swap on many of my bush rigs and love the result.

the the t/case aftermarket gears seem to howl a LOT.

i have seen the crawler box installed into a couple trucks and it really gives them some serious crawl ratios but a 40/42 will need some major mods to fit (i.e. what Simon did) definately not a bolt up and run...

shit all flows down hill and pools around your feet. The object is to
keep shovelling it away. If the shit is gaining you better figure out
how to shovel faster :-) Dave Stedman 03/20/09
