seems like a nice rig.
If it is an Automatic
find 5spd gears (5:12s)
If it's a 5spd.
Wait till some one makes the 5:83 again.

It shouldn't be too bad on the road with the 30s on. For off-road use you can fit tcase gears, they lower the low ratio but not the high ratio. Check through the vendor ads. The 5:83s have been unavailable for some time. They may be making a comeback soon but unless you are going to go for bigger rubber I should think that they would be too low for you.
