I understand the not having money thing, bro. I'm there myself. I work but right now things are tight. I'm about to lose my job as it is, ha ha. =/
Or you can always just "leave well enough alone". Untill later, that is.
If you can't afford 250$, what do you think is going to happen when something breaks on your truck? Wouldn't you rather have the money to keep it running so you can go make more so you can fix her up so you can run and wheel and and and...
you get my point!

Pessimist, what size tres are you turning to be needing 4.88's?Bill is right...buy a new set.....you're probably not accounting for the master install kit either are you?When it comes to diffs and things buy new and have it done unless you KNOW you can do it yourself......or Gimme a call,buy some beer and I'll take a few of my buddies to your house and git r done...heh
