On the street, with out 5th gear youll be fine!
I had 3.73's and a GRS1 and burned a clutch trying to turn 33's!
And in low that you will be about 37:1 while i was at about 56:1
Big difference!

you'll need a clutch soon if you wheel it. Light mTs will work but you lose 5th. heavy boggers would be unbearable IMO..
I run 33 boggers w/ 4.62s & GRS1. I love it. I'd love more gear but it still runs the highway a lot.

Go 5.12s, when you do the 4.1:1 t-case you can always get the 4.62s then - if you want them. Either sell the 5.12s or save for your next Sam.
I currently run 5.12s with 33s and everything stock. It is ok on the highway but off-road you need more t-case. Stock t-case is only ~80% lower after all...

lol.........i don't think so shane.......to get one of those things shipped here would cost ALOT..........and i'm unemployed......... i was thinking of getting a 84 t-case and the 462's, would that be anygood???? i won't be running swampers unless i get lucky and see a set in someones yard........they also cost alot to get here.......i know a guy who just got 36" tsl's......over 1600$ altogether.......:eek: :eek:
i was looking for 5.13's but this guy called and said he had ones out of an auto, so i figured i'd get that one and wait till anouther comes and if i happen to get 5.13's then the next set eather or will be dropped in......
