If you are going to use it as a daily driver, and want a manual shift tranny then I suggest an NV4500 woth an NP205 adapted to it.

Rockwell and 205 are both gear driver, rockwell is noisy and parts aren't cheap... 205 parts are cheap and very common...

the NV4500 is a five speed tranny which will make for a nicer driver.

check out Rust Buster and Musclerodz build threads for this setup...

I'm gonna move this over to the 4x4 builds...
