I've just got a set of 4.7's from great basin rovers in the u.s.
they're getting fitted this week, so I'll let you know in a couple
of weeks after a trip or 2. I'm running 35 krawlers [bfg]

Just under $700 a gearset when I bought mine years ago, now I have to pull them out and go back to 3.54 to suit the 4BD1t :?

Not sure what brand these are, but Rovacraft import containers of goodies from the UK - including QT radius arms, among other things. And considering they have exactly the same photo as on the Ashcroft Transmissions site, I suspect they are likely Ashcroft gears, but you'd want to check that. They may also bring in other ratios...
84 Rangie, 3 inch spring lift, 2 inch body, Megasquirted 4.6, R380, rear Maxi, 34x11.5 JT2s. Simex FM installed.

fnukle look up greatbasinrovers.com they were $1000 + freight
for 4.7's . freight was in my bag as I was there on holi's.
mine are getting pegged also, so they should be as strong a rover
as you can get.
