Looks good! I painted my rims the same way and left the center cap silver
What kind of paint did you use?

WELL I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH ATLAS..... upon further inspection i found the 3rd shifter under the seat.... 4-SPEED. They could only tell me it was geared either 2.0-5.44-7.0 or 2.72-3.8-10.34..... I would have to pull it out to be able to tell for sure but I sure like the sound of 2.0 5.44 7.0

I would say look down the road a little and see what is the end result for the Jeep. Nothin wrong with 1 tons 5.38's or deeper if ya go 60 and 60, and run the rubicon case,,,,, Jus gotta ask yourself if it's worth it.

I know.... just heard back from atlas, the unit was manufactured in july so its brand new. It is 2.0 -4.3-11.09. I just messed around with it a bit and shifting requires some technique but is not difficult. The only drawback is that you have to be rolling a bit to shift. Im thinking ill have to take it .... maybe just suck it up and pay to have it swapped.

OK and I know you thought about it, but what about yokes and drive shafts and the linkage,,,,, I am guessing your just going to swap everything jeep to jeep ,,,,,is that right?
