was your previous swap out for a different vehicle (like a Toy)?
or when you did it before, (on a zuk) were there some problems you encountered that you thought "dammit, next time i'm going to see if there's an easier way..." kind of thing?

just curious.:)

Oh thats all. I turned my rear axle over to get the new suzi high pinion. makes it hard to drain the oil out of it though but it gives better shaft angles. only problem is I cant get the truck go forward it keeps fighting itself fronts pullin forward rear pullin back
put it in reverse and just the oppposite.

swap the front, make it a high pinion as well, then youll have 5 reverse gears, but only 1 forward, hell gotta trade something though, right!!!!:D
