My uncle bought a #10800 gvw cucv with the 4.88 or 5.10 rears. He added a 2
speed Spicer (like most med. duty trucks use)between the trans and transfer
case. It was a 10% overdrive and adds considerably to driveability, and
reduces the rpm for day to day use.It cost $1100+/- and only req'd minor
driveshaft modifications.
