I guess it;s alright if your hauling.
But for on the trails, isn't slow and steady the way to go? Not flooring it causing slippage?

495ft-lbs of torque through a low-range transfer case means this thing could practically climb a vertical wall... i doubt it's made for top speed, since the jeep chasis couldn't handle high speeds anyways.

I'd rather have the hardships of doing that swap than pay the sticker on a GT.
Just like... why did the Vette owner S/C his Z06? To rape the Ferrari owner twice over at half the sticker :rolleyes:
Better yet... why S/C the Focus? Why else than to make Camaro, etc. owners s**t themselves!
