highly recommend the under drive at a minimum, if you are wanting lower low i also highly recommend the 3:1 low gears... P/T, under drive, low range gears 1000% my favorite upgrade(s) for my 100 series.. does it clunk every time you shift between R & D? what about between Park and Reverse?

so now your shifter takes you from high range to low range and the center diff lock shifts between 2WD to 4WD. for 4WD you also need to lock the hubs.

Open up the hub hole with a router..

did you install a spool in the transfer case?

when i first installed my hubs i was running in the same configuration and did so for 4 months maybe, no clunks at all. have you checked all your u-joints? Have you swapped your drive flanges back on? I would probably just live with until you get the transfer case sorted out.

did you use OEM CV's? did you get the right C-Clip installed in the end of the CV in the hub? there is usually a little play axially between the CV and the Hub assembly. if you are just running hubs in the front and still have the VC in the transfer case putting power to the front end you may...

Like the front diff bushings kind of clunk?

ha! i just noticed that this went on BAT prior to the rollover.

the 10% reduction gear affects both hi and low range gears, it is a single gear exchange of the idler gear and requires no modification of the t-case. the 3.1:1 low ranges replace the gears for the low range only giving you a lower low. the part time kit replaces the center diff with a solid...

I haven't, i think i might have more than one set though

No blocks in mine.

I will have to dig through my boxes now..

interested, i think i have a set but not sure where they are.. what years will these fit? mine is a '64

Both, you can do the over or under drive for the High range, this is just swapping the idler gear no case modification needed. If you want to get a lower low range (crawling) you replace the low range gear set and this requires some modification (machining or grinding) of the transfer case...

the over/under drive gear folks are talking about swaps out the idler gear in the transfer case. the pitch diameter is the same but gains or loses a tooth basically to give 10%+/- it does change the wear pattern on the gears and produces some gear whine but you wont notice it over general road...
