I wanted a locker for my front Dana 44, but it is pretty expensive. I also wanted 4.88 gears. I did the math and 31s and 4.10s are like 33s with 4.36s. I know that isn't an actual ratio, and that 33s are much heavier. Would my 4 banger be better off with 4.56 or 4.88? The reason I ask this is because I found a True Trac and 4.56s with install kit for maximum $500.
This stuff from 4WPs is $631, and with a locker it is $752. If I save this $131-252, I will be more likely to get this swap done this summer and finish out everything else. There is no doubt that I will have an axle in the front this summer, but there is a doubt on if I will be able to afford rear axle, lift and tires.....
