So that will be a crawl ratio of something like 190 compared to my 55...although you are in turn spinning 42's and me 33's....

What about going something like a 5.13 in the diff with a spool on the rear and a auto locker on the front - that way you can get some rev's up without reving the Atlas too hard?

ya i would like to do that..but trying to save some coin for now and the 3 grand i will save will be 3/4 of my atlas.. and remember the smaller the ratio the bigger the pinion.. = stronger!! thinking of down the track if i go silly and drop a v8 in her.. but i still may go that way..just looking for ease to get her back on the trails sooner than latter.

why would anyone buy diffs from solid with crap customer service like that?

If it were me I would be getting my money back and telling him to stick his pieces of junk.
