Atlas 4 speed Pricing

Mortalis5509 · Dec 26, 2012

Poly performance sent me a code for 13% for tomorrow only. That would make the 4speed $2708. The sale is for only one day so I don't have a lot of time to wait for other vendors to reply back to see what they would offer. Good price or is that a run of mill pricing?

I bought mine on cyber monday a year ago and it was about that with shipping.
Not trying to talk down because been a great case so far but I have yet to find a reason to have a 4 speed case. If I was building another I would put a two speed and save a grand.

That's spinning in my head a little.

I use mine every time I go out. Can't remember what I paid for it but it was over 3k. I believe that included an adapter as well. If you are ready to purchase, I would get it and not look back.

It isn't a race Glen!

Not to derail this thread. Can I ask what trans, gear ration in atlas, and axle gear you run? Do you hill climb mostly or trail ride?

Re: Re: Atlas 4 speed Pricing

The 10. whatever looks to have the most usable range of 2.72, 3.8, and 10 something?

10, 3.8, 2.72 1, 5.0/C4 5.13 Gears. Mostly trail ride. I have been to Moab and Johnson Valley 4-5x combined. Clayton and Hot Springs are in my back yard. Mostly trail riding but it is there if I want to bounce around on the rocks a bit or cruise the flats of the dessert. I have had the rig for three yrs with no intentions of getting rid of it.

Not a derail at all. Some of the information I was looming for as well but didn't post it within this thread.

im glad this was brought up! im gathering parts and have not been able to decide. i could see useing a 4 speed at clayton a lot. not so much at hot springs though.

Re: Re: Atlas 4 speed Pricing

I use it more at HS by far. Lots of crawling trails for the lower ranges 1:1 for getting around the park and 2.72 for the loose, wet or slabs. It stays in the lower gears at Clayton almost the entire time I am there. I love the 10:1 and probably use it way more than needed but it really takes slot of stress off of the drive train.

Was it you that called me today?

The 4 speed is nice if you have the money to spend but 90% of the Atlas's we sell are 2 speed. A nice 3.0 or 3.8 case works really well in most rigs. Slightly less powered rigs or crawl only rigs can benefit from the 4.3. If you buy the 4 speed with the 2.72/3.8/10.34 you will end up using the 3.8 ratio the most.

I think after I made this posting I did for pricing.

Mine is the 8.whatever 4 spd case and I stay in the 3.0 gear all the time. I am running the combo in sig with 4.56 axles and 44" boogers.

I actually bought my 4 spd hoping I could one day get out around OK and all sometime. As of now still hoping. Hahaha

Give me a call again next week and we will get you set up. We will beat any other price you find. My hands are just tied right now because AA is closed until Jan 2nd. Sorry for the pimping, just thought it might be helpful info to you guys.

this is my issue, clayton is 2.5 hours, hotsprings is 2. i really want ti build a bouncer, but truth is most of where i wheel isnt bounceing.
im running 3.73 or 4.10 in my 14bs so a 4.7scs would be good bounceing but im not to sure about the crawling side. thats where i keep
looking at the atlas.

That's where I'm at as well. Where we wheel mostly is fairly loose with clay/ limestone so wheel speed is needed on some hills. I had a 4:1 and 4:46 gears and liked it. I broke the front r&p on my 60 and found it before we were goin wheeling so the only set I had was 5:13 so I regeared it. Now I hate it for where we wheel mostly but it sure would have been nice at Clayton . Will the 4 speed be a weak link idk much about them.. It's obvious that a even a beefed up atlas can be thrashed .
