Here is an AOD adapter for an FE at Bendtsen's for $950. They also have an adapter kit for an FE to a SBF manual trans, and an FE to a Chimmy auto adapter. Then you still have to add the trans cost.

I am pretty red neck and will just get some 33 or 35 and that will help, and with that 4 speed with the granny gear the larger tires will not affect it pulling my bass boat up the boat ramp. Thanks for the advice.

If you get some 18 or 20" wheels, it's easier to find 33-34" tires that are still somewhat narrower and with all season tread. Since the new heavy duty pickups come with those sizes.

My favorite size is a 285/75R18, 35" tall, about 11 inches wide.

Yeah. Nothing has 15" wheels anymore except for small cars. 17s 18s and 20s are on all the trucks nowadays.
