Default Little upgrade
This weekends project. Going from 2.59's to 3.07.



Lets save the "which gear ratio is best" comments for another thread. Would like to hear about any tips and tricks for making a successful swap. Yes I have a FSM but we all know that sometimes falls short. Appreciate the help. And RIP Nutz4C4, the rear diff came from him. Will be putting it to good use soon Mike!

DT I just posted in your other thread (rebuild) not realizing you started this one.

Is this swap done?

He wrote about it in his other "starting the rebuild" thread. Sounds like he's really happy with it.
