locking rear diff ?
That's not an 8.8, it's a Dana 35HP, and it's a tuff little diff. in the front, but with it being an HP diff. I'm not sure how well it would hold up in the rear. U can find 'em in the rear of somthing, Corvets I think, but not sure on that. I might be wrong, but I think the R200 would be a better, and eazyer choise. And U can get an air locker for 'em 2.

Crawl Ratio
A CR of 44 is good with like 30"-33" tires. I have a CR of 66:1 on my 'Burb with 35"s and it's nice! I'm not sure how to compair that to the 44:1 with say 29" or 30" tires, but I know that it's close.

yota aluminums + studs
That's a bummer man. But U can get studs for cheep @ NAPA. They sell 'em 1@ a time, and U can get the lugs to go with 'em 2. If U know the size/thred pitch U can order full sets w/lugs from Summit Racing.

yota aluminums + studs
U will probably have to use Toyota studs, but check one of the lug nuts (Toyota washer style) on the stock Subaru stud to be sure. If the threds match then U will be fine with Subaru studs.

steering extension question
I would take the side that goes from the U-joint to the rack and cut that. Get a pice of heavy wall tube (.250) that will just slide over the 2 parts and use that for your'e extension. Put it in the car, get it all lined up and then tack weld it. Pull it back out and finish weld it. That should give U a verry strong pice that is custom fit to your'e car:)

Question about super swampers
The SSR's would be THE way to go for your'e needs. They will out last the TSL bias 2:1. And they are alot quieter on the street as well. They work better in the snow and ice too.

Nissan 4x4 ratios
The transfercase ratio is 2.02:1 in low, and 1:1 in hi. That's for all the years that use that 'case. It's like a T102 or somthing like that. I found info on it by Googleing "Nissan 720PU"

solar battery charger ,does anybody know this item - link.
Yup! I use 'em all the time. Don't think of it so much as a batt. charger, but as somthing that will keep your'e batt. from going dead from siting, and they de-sulfate your'e batt. so they will last longer, A LOT longer. U can get 'em @ Horbor friegth for about $18 and some times they go on sale for $11.

What do your friends think of your hobby!?
I belong to an off road club caled 3 Rivers Offroad, these guys are HARD CORE. And they can't wait for me to get the new roo built, they all want to see what it can do. My wife says "Why can't you build a more manly off-road rig?" but I have an '84 3/4T 'burb with a 6" lift and 35's in the driveway allready:-p so I think she just wants me to give up on the off-road roos. Most of my friends think it's cool, they know I wouldn't wheel 'em if they werent capable.

Fixed the RX finally!!!
Hey Brian, if your'e heads are OK I would just use an SPFI, or carb engine. If U run stock boost, and good gas it should run fine, and make more power all across the board:brow: CARB wouldn't be able to spot that one, and the long block should be eazy to come by. Just my$.02
