The 4.56s are an awesome mod even with stock height tires as the stock 4.10s lugged the H2 from the factory, so with 37s, they are awesome!

Along with the gears, you need to purchase Master Gear install kit and new fluid. Get enough fluid to change both diffs twice as you will need to change it at 500 miles on new gear install, even though it's synthetic fluid!

New tie rods have nothing to do with gears or locker, but I do suggest this be your first concern. The best thing you can do for your tie rods, pitman and idler arms is to add the Cognito Pitman/Idler kit! After you add that, then it's still a good idea to add larger tie rods.

Trail Duty has the front lockers on sale right now and I dont think they have many left!!!

X2. This about exactly what I would have said. I have no front locker and am not interested in it. Nothing a good winch can't do. I think I spent 500 per axle for the gears at 4WP.

The steering linkage is easy and about 200 bucks. Install and alignment might run another 100 but they are easy to install.

Defintely get it from Phil D at traiduty.com.
