With 44s and a one ton truck, top speed should not be on your priority list.

And don't forget about upgraded brake booster, drilled and slotted rotors, ceramic brake pads, 2-4 piston calipers to stop that hog. I'd even go as far as a rear disk conversion or an axle from a newer truck with disk brakes

True but I'd still like to go pretty fast and What kind of brake booster would I need and for brakes I thinking about brembo or modified wilwood brakes and what's the newest year axle that would fit an 86-95 f250 or 350
