Eric, I didn't say anything about the SBU's as they are a bit large and you mentioned you wanted to wheel it. I take mine out and I always need to be mindful of how big it is. I think it's kind of dainty. Mine is a Doka(crew-cab) with AC. I have the 24 speed tranny option. In our speak it's like a 8 speed with a 3-speed t-case. If you get the high speed gears or the super high speed gears you will want at least the 16 speed option. These are called highway gears(8) and then the working gears(8). Mine has the crawler gears(8) also. They're not very practical(crawler gears) for off-roading, more of a feed the snow blower thing or pulling a bailor. As stated for the SBU's they aren't cheap, Dokas are even more. SBU's are tall and heavy(mine's about 12,000lbs).
