I would seriously consider some wheelie bars....all the extra weight along with the 4.10 gears just might put that thing on the bumper.

Seriously though I think you are going to work your hind end off and not be happy with the end result. I would sell that rear end and buy either gears or a whole other rearend that is not so big...but you have to do what the budget allows.

Hey, txhunter69,

no one is making fun of you, it's just that you are heading in the wrong direction and people are trying to help you from making that mistake. Sorry if i made you think that, but really people hook trucks like yours all day long, without going to extremes.

Zip.
