just a quick one, i read somewhere that the rocklobster compromises your reverse ( as in very slow ) for those with trail tough have you noticed a large reduction in yours ??? or is it just the way the rocklobster is done ???

reduction gears are in the transfer case, so no matter what brand you buy there still goin to reduce reverse as well as every other gear.

Why would a slow reverse be a problem?

The lobsters reduce high range by 12% and low by 85% ( or close to that anyway).
Just live with it

I use high range reverse when I need wheelspeed to get back out of something. It's equivalent to somewhere between low 2nd and low 3rd forwards so it's ideal to clean the tyres.
