sounds like it would be a good swap for you then. I am worried about needing to get some wheel speed up and going, and only having half the rpm before having to shift. There have been quite a few times where im bangin the rev limeter at 6500 back and forth to make it up something. For true crawling though it will definatly be a torque monster, that would just lug its way through, or spin the tires, or break something if it got in a bind with that low of a ratio.....torque is a mother

One thing to think about.. everybody will love it at camp, but after a couple of hours on the trail they might be wanting some ear plugs, and a rag to wipe the soot off of there windsheilds :grinpimp: nice to have ya here...later
