    Can front gear and rear gear ratio be different on 4x4?

    I know i'm an idiot when it comes to automotive. I heard front stock diff fits up to 4.10 and rear fits 4.56. Is there a reason why i havent seen anybody put 4.10 on front and 4.56 on rear?

When engine is shut off, radio plays just fine, and it makes "typewriter typing noise" from engine compartment. I try starting it as soon as it shuts off, it clicks a few times and no more clicks...

    Clevis lift question

    I tried messing with clevis once and was successful lifting it about 1/4 inch. Now, I'm trying to do it again but I've been prying clevis down with no luck.
