Thanks! It has 4.10 gears..im thinking of gping 4-6 inches of lift with 33's. I dont want to.over do it with 35s and ruin my gearing.

I have done it! Haha! I got the cam bearings installed. After a dismal failure with ch25 that according to durabond will fit. Texas Speed informed me that they do not. Went with ch23 and they went in like butter..well maybe not like butter but more like margirine thats been in the freezer...it pays to have the right tool for the job. A sidw note for anyone attempting this, the #4 and #5 go in from the back..the housing is tapered in the oppisite direction.
Notice the taper on 4 facing rearward..if you look at 3 the taper is not there..its facing foward
bores are deglazed via flexhone wich i highly recommend. Now once i double check all the clearances i can assemble and install! Cant wait!
