Hey Bundy

Whether you get the R105 or the R151 is purely up to you as to what ratios you want in 1st and 2nd as that is the only difference.

R150f: 1st 3.830:1, 2nd 2.062:1, 3rd 1.436:1, 4th 1.00:1, 5th 0.838:1
R150f: 1st 4.313:1, 2nd 2.330:1, 3rd 1.436:1, 4th 1.00:1, 5th 0.836:1

I can't vouch for exactly how much it moves it back as it was not of interest to me as i needed a full custom tunnel anyway but it definitely is further back.
Also, depending on your adaptor plate your transfer case may also need to be top shift. Although i seriously doubt it. The R151f that I have is capable of having a Forward shift transfer case.

As far as what to get them out of the R151f came out of the Surf's with the 2lte motor and the R150f from the 2lt.
