2019 4x4 Sprinter 170 2500, will be converted to a live-in bike/ski base. Trying to finalize the options for the build, and while I've searched the forum and know this has been talked about repeatedly I'm still uncertain as to whether to get the 4.182 axle ratio or stick with the standard 3.923.
- As it's a 2500, with the conversion and fully loaded it'll be running at or near GVWR.
- Will do a lot of driving in the mountains.
- Will be putting larger tires on for off road use.
- Will not be pulling a trailer.
Thoughts?
