You can get 5.29, but they are weaker then 4.1 and 4.88's. I run 4.88's with 37's to get my crawl ratio back I also run dual t/cases. You can also get t/case gears to get a better crawl.

I personally think t/case gears or dual casses are a better option. You can get gears and duals from marks adapters.

Go transfer gears, not diffs, 4.8s will be A-ok on 33's, even 37's.

He may have them now as a std setup.....5.29 is from early stout i believe...then u need 2 stouts.....this is making me thirsty
Dual transfers will turn your diffs into 10/1's...and u still get descent highway running, probably a lot easier to fit than 2 diffs

stouts are the wrong size and only provided 6.1s if you were lucky

i run 5.29s out of a hiace van front and rear with rd01 airlockers and 35's and duals and have only had one 5.29 die and that was from the bolts stretching on the bearing caps and the diff getting loose in the housing.

what ratios you got now ??

i ran 32 and 4.3's for ages and it was fine when i went to 5.29s and 32 the truck was nice to crawl in but a Scanas on the highway etc.

go for the duals or a set of transfer gears and you will be set
