#142
the 37s rub on the inner fender on the firewall only cuz i moved my front axle back 1" for when I install a drop hanger that will move it forward .5-1" will prolly remove the axle relocating plate til I install the hanger and put the axle back at 1.75" forward of stock and I shouldnt have any rubbing (hopefully)

ok so as far as lockers go I wish I was still rnning 4cyl 3rds so I cold just weld them up but am running V6 3rds instead so now its not that cheap/easy so I am prolly going to jsut buy a coulpe aussie locker since they finally came out with the V6 or just spend money and have someone install a spool it would all be about the same price...

ok so as far as the lockers go I did find more on erlding up a V6 3rd and it really helped so I think Im gonna try it and if it doesnt work Ill just pitch the money for a spool... I just need to find someone with a welder stronger than my 90amp

got my body lift installed and I am happy with it so far... It was a 2 day process since I had to patch weld my floor on the pass side it was completely rusted through... now that I haev the room I want to raise my gas tank and tranny to clear the bottom up more and then hopefully get my G52/54 5 speed swapped in and start on some dual cases and rear locker

well I thing after a coulpe days of driving Im gonna cut the body lift down to a 1" and add a front drop hanger to level with the rear and correct my pinion angle and I am saving for new gears and a rear locker prolly spool unless I can get enough for the V6 aussie

ok so I came across a local deal to get 2 factory V6 4.88 3rds for $150 each should I do it or save for 5.29... I dd my truck on my 32s but wheel with my 37s... after my 37s wear out I will prolly stick with a 33" or 35" tire and figured 4.88 would be a good nutueral gear since I plan to run dual cases that will be for trail so the gear choice is more a matter of choice for street...
so with that said 4.88 or 5.29s

ok so how hard would it be to install a spool by myself?
also how are the driving characteristics of a spool on the highway 65-75mph is it any different then around town 25-45mph
