Are you going to spill the beans soon on the purpose of the list.
It is really interesting to see what everyone is bringing.
Now for gears on the Con, I ran 4.11’s for years but with a 4:1 T-Case, so to me 4.56 or higher (numerically) with a manual and stock T-Case will be good to go. As far as Automatics go, well that’s just cheating. So as far as the automatic tranny rigs go, in low 4wd you can easily run 3.73’s with a 2.72:1 low. As far as the list goes it looks good. IMHO

I just wanted to make sure everyone was going to have fun and not worry about whether their Jeep would be capable. Also to identify any holes in their build that need plugging with money.
Now for lockers if you have them they are great and it’s so much easier to get through the trail. If you don’t have them it’s good to have a winch or as I’m getting fond of saying; lots of beer and jerky. These are just my takes on it and I’d like to hear all of yours’.
I ran an open Dana 30 up till about 6 years ago no problem as long as we weren’t in the mud
I hoping with my bigger tires, higher skid, and a little more spurience under my belt I can make it thru the couple sections I had a hard time with.
I have not. It will be the most challenging thing I have done in mine. I did the High Lakes with @bobthetj03 with out using any lockers. Of course I was really green then.
I can still hear the faint yelling
“turn your front locker on !!!”
