Yeah sure. Send me an email at meanlemons@gmail.com and we can continue the conversation. It's also easier for me to send pics too.

It's a 231 doubler. Pretty nice little setup. Same thing I built a while back and never installed before parting out my Jeep.

Just a 231 w/SYE right now.

When the LS goes in it'll be a twin sticked NP205.

Good luck I just got my 242 back in yesterday. No SYE but that is becuase I didn't need it and I almost wish I would have put one in anyhow. I know now what it takes to tear one apart, so if one needs to be done later it will be much easier.

Get yourself some really good lock ring pliers and snap ring pliers. I went the cheap route and got them to work but I messed around longer with those than I probably should have as a result of cheap tools.

Yeah I think I’m going to just do a 205 with doubler myself.

I'd order an atlas before I spent that on a 205.

The 205 is really high geared. 1.96:1 in low. Doubler is almost 100% necessary without lots of HP.

Yes but they're half the price of an Atlas.

I have an Atlas. It is the way to go. Simple and strong as they come and you can get just about any gear ration you want when they build it for you
