Since the card number was different my server couldnt do auto pay and the site is temp off line. Ill see what I can do to get that taken care of asap.

Thank you. I am planning on getting into ZJs. The problem is having one in the area readily available to tear down, measure, design, mock up, build, and test. If I could get someone in the area willing to drop off their rig for a while it would work. But it seems like its going to have to wait till I have the money and find a good deal on one to buy for company R and D.

Ok. You know you have a transfercase right? Most likely a 231 but possibly a 242. Your transfercase has 2 high and 4 high. When you shift into 4 high it engages the chain to drive your front tires too right? We aren't concerned with this part. When you shift from 4 high to 4 low you get a major gear reduction. 2.72:1 to be exact. This helps when you're offroad. Climbing steep obstacles becomes easy and you have more control over your throttle. This is the half of the case you want. So what this kit does is allow you to take only the front half of an extra case and bolt it between your existing transmission and existing transfercase. This will give you an additional gear reduction. 2.72:1 X 2.72:1. Most call this low low. You will have so much torque on your hands that you could literally let your foot off the brake and idle up near vertical obstacles. Ever wonder why those toyotas and samaris that have half the engine as us can climb the same obstacles while using barely any throttle? This is how. Any more questions?

It does require another shifter that can be placed in multiple locations and configurations. Right now I don't supply the shifter but it will be an added option in the future. Many people build their own modifying stock linkages or using a cable setup.

Thats what the kit is for... Did you go to the link and look at the pictures? adapter bolts to the back of the first transfercase front half and then has holes to bolt up the front of the second transfercase.
