yea i found the gear venders,it looks pretty cool.at 8mpg i'll probaly have to save for one. i'll be doing a lot of miles,so it might just be worth it in the looooong run.i just pulled a 6,700 lb trailer the other day,stopping in a hurry stinks with 4 drums ,thank god for that 4 speed to shift down.but any way i have to invest in somthing to get better mpg's.that big work body on the back loaded down with tools don't help ether.but all my customers love that old service truck.thats pretty cool.

With a 2.78 or 2.32 first, it wouldn't be too good a match.... Only via divorced transfer case can you make it work.
