Please don't let anybody convince you that the factory running gear is junk and that you can't get parts. With proper care unless you plan on rock crawling in Utah it will all hold up just fine.
The 4x4 section of this forum is a great source of info, I have learned a lot from those guys, and they can help you find parts that may seem impossible to locate.
Have fun with your new project

I thought it seemed odd for it to not have a 4spd gearbox also, I will definitely look into that, thank you!
