Well an update on Ugly, Shortly after we did the tarp shade we blew the rear end out, didn't even make it to the trail. So as is often said when something brakes, its an opportunity for an upgrade.

Dana 44's front and rear (donated from a late 80's Waggoner) with selectable lockers
4.56:1 gears (2500 rpm at 75 with 35" tall tires) Only have 31"'s right now.
New bearings/seals all around.


At the very least I will be able to use 5th gear again.
