CAD. :thppt:

6.4 is nice, but takes expensive oil.

11.5" rear end, but only 4:10 gears.

What is wrong with CAD?

Unnecessary disconnect in the axle that ads cost, complexity but not strength in order to give you a claimed 1mpg benefit. It also puts a delay in the 4wd engagement and adds electronics to engage the axle shaft. Check out the big old plastic connector under the axle too, great placement choice for your off road truck...lol

I only do what the majority of the 4 voices in my head tell me to. In most cases, I ignore two of them because one doesn't speak English, and I suspect the other is talking to someone else.
