The fact that you have 2 manual transmissions and 2 transfercases makes the crawl ratio super low. Didn't you once say it takes almost 2 min for one revolution of the 44's at idle?:icon_twisted:

when i moved to this town i went straight to the police station and had a talk with the sargeant,let him know who i was and asked if there would be any issues with the truck.he looked it over,made sure the lights,brakes,steering,etc were all good,and said if i wasn't an idiot on the street with it,he had no problem.i've kept my end of the bargain,he's kept his.
