i dont know. i bought it from jake king. all i know is that the WMS-WMS is the same. im going to get perches in the month and get them mocked up. then weld the shock mounts up higher so there will be nothing lower than the pumpkin. pull the axles, and have the housing hot tanked. and then let it sit till next year or when i can afford alloy axles and a locker. im not sure about gears though. any suggestions on that? i want to stay between 3"-4.5" and know bigger than a 33" tire.

I think you are limited to 4.56 in the front d30 and 4.56 was what we put in Derek's w/33s. It worked nice together and felt slightly more aggressive than stock tire/gear setup. A 9 inch will be sweet in there and I bet you can get some brake ideas from Currie but they don't care how much it costs.

dereks did feel quite a bit more aggressive. i was leaning towards 4.56's. ididnt think that going from 3:55 up to 3:73 would be worth it. but if i stay with 31" tires, is going to a 4:56 setup worth it?

ok, so if i go from a 31 to a 32 and straty away from the 33's, would i go to a 4:10 setup? im just trying to get some ideas. i did forget to mention that this would be driven approximately 20 miles a day.
