When you are ready to do the swap, let me know.
I dont know how tall your tires are, but if they are 30" or taller, then dont look back, just do the 4.10's. You will be very happy, especially with a 5400 lb race weight.

Blown, I've been meaning to ask ya about that race weight too. You have the half ton crew cab right? My last time at the track I was in full street trim-minus the tailgate of course 3/4 tank of gas and myself and mine weighed in at 5155 LBs. Are you running 20's?

I am running 20's. I tipped the scales @ 5400 with my fat *** in the driver seat and a half tank of gas. I am going to run this truck the way it sits, not even going to mess with slicks.
