Bill's 1 Ton TJ Build

<< < (30/30)

Originally, I was planning to do a Dana 300, flipped with a HD output.  Priced out, roughly $200 for a stock Dana 300, $200 for a rebuilt kit, $400 for the HD output, and about another $200 in flipping it and shifters (that's going the cheap way) I was looking around $1000 and still having 2.6:1 gearing.  I'd also need to work out the speed sensor with this route.

I got the Stak, rebuilt by a known and reputable Stak rebuilder for $1200.  Needless to say, I couldn't pass it up.

With 5.13's in the axles, it should make for a good crawl.

Mreecew:
I get that. Thats a great deal on a stak also. Should give you around 78:1, that will be real nice especially with the automatic.

skibum:
Not sure if you already have a trans cooler but recomend the B&M one with it's own fan. That will keep the AW4 cool no matter what.

Bill3753:
Got a little more done.  Still trying to get the same AW4.  Hopefully this weekend I'll have it and will be able to start bolting it all together.  If so, I'll get some pictures posted for a real update.
