Another nice thing about the manual swap is getting a better crawl ratio because the AR5 has a lower first gear than our auto.

Stock VX crawl ratio: 2.86 (1st) x 2.48 (T-case) x 4.30 (axles)= 30.5

Manual VX crawl ratio: 3.75 (1st) x 2.48 (T-case) x 4.30 (axles)=39.9

Sounds like the difference is noticable???
