I think you ought to save yourself a crapload of money, get an New Venture Gear 241OR (Rubicon 4:1) which is a direct bolt-on for $1,299, and use the leftover funds to regear your differentials.

Good idea except no twin stick. Once you have a twin stick you'll never go back.

Dyna, not everyone needs a twin stick t-case, nor can everyone afford one. Based on the OP's spec list, I personally believe his money would be better spent elsewhere, but, whatever.

I do no snow wheeling...it is too cold for me and i live about 4 hours from sand...so no sand wheeling and i dont know if cars are allowed to drive in the sand there...
. 
I do the technical stuff...rocks and trees and what not...other words a lot of clutch work. 
I plan to go to 37's when my current tires wear out. my dads answer to keep from stalling is "give it more gas"...
I like to creep over rocks, not jump over them lol.

IMO, being on rock/tree trails, up here in the East Coast, we try to achieve 90:1-100:1. Any lower than that, no wheel speed and high RPMs. We're not one for using 5th and 6th gear when wheelin. 1-3 gear TOPS.
With the 5.0:
With 4.88s, you'd be at 108:1
With 5.13, you'd be at 114:1
With the 4.3:
With 4.88s, you'd be at 93:1
With 5.13s, you'd be at 98:1
Now, depends on tire size.
