What did you do to your SMB today?

Changed gearing today.
Was 3.73
Now 4.30
I like it. A lot.

245/75 R16 30" @ 70mph 2080rpm 3.73 ***Stock tires and gearing***
285/75 R16 32.5" @ 70mph 1940rpm 3.73
285/75 R16 32.5" @ 70mph 2270rpm 4.30

I just reinstalled my repaired fiberglass battery box. The box was broken when I bought the van, yet it seems someone lost a battery on the highway. If new one's were for sale I would have bought them, yet without that, there's a grinder, fiberglass, and resin to sort it out.

Maybe add a couple metal straps to hold the box ?

I was thinking about adding some kind of straps. Of course, where to attach them becomes an issue. I'm not sure if the box failed because it was hit, or just gave out. Before I drop in a battery, I'll look it over again.

Thanks

You didn't give that money to SMB I hope! I've ordered replacements by the foot on Ebay and got really good product. Changed to black too. I've done a couple of em.

Nope. My local ace hardware.

Almost finished my Sterling 10.5 (Full float, 4.30 gears and electronic locker) install along with Agile rear springs. Need to finish shock mounts, brakes, etc., but 4x4 conversion is almost complete...
