The only gearing available for the Rockwells is 6.72:1,and the only locker,besides lincoln locking,is the Detroit locker. Nice rig but would do better with some 54" Boggers  .

Pretty cool for something ridiculously hard core, but I'd rather tow a boat than trail rig. I like to be able to drive my rig to and from the trail and around town for that matter. Never gonna build something that I won't be able to do that with. |

Its not easy to win Top Truck Challenge. He must have done something right. He built it for that purpose, went and won, to me if that is what floats your boat more power to you. He deserves congratulations for his accomplishment. |
