Aaron, I will gladly purchase those parts, as money becomes available. I would love to get ol' clyde's pep up. I still need to figure out what gears I have in there, and figure out where I want to go. The truck is a daily driver, and for the most part, always will be. But I do love a good romp through the sticks. I could go on and on about all that I want to do to my truck. It's most of what I think about during the day. Everytime I look at the truck...where should I start.

By the way, Congrats on the baby girl Brendon!

Goodmorning guys. So I checked on the rear end, got a 9in with 3.50. I had been under the impression that I was higher than that. Not a bad starting point I guess.

There are days that I wish mine was a late 70's truck. I have always really liked those old body styles, especially the high-boys. 3.50's would be alright for 33's ya think? Or should I just stick with 31's
