-You may want to strongly consider going up in your center diff oil if you're running 5k or less.
-Be aware that your buggy will jump with more of a "nose up attitude" then before. Actually pretty useful for the SC.
-Your buggy will now have a slight drag brake off-power coming from the rear end.
Great tips dude. I have a question for you. In what conditions would you benefit the most from changing the gearing like this?
