    It sounds like I might be following you lol. I'm gonna start lookin at junk yards for front housings, no diff or r&P preferred so I can have the same setup up front that i already have in the back (4.30 on a Auburn Auto Cross).

    This will all start to happen after I get married this summer guys. I'm ring shopping this month, and askin her at the end of may/june. Just gonna elope @ the JP then just have a parlay at the house! But yea, after all that, i am tackling this as my next mod. Thanks for all the support and input from everyone, even the nay sayers. Haters gonna hate right? :crazy:

    Just remember vano that it's easy for people to say "go for it" when they are not footing the bill or doing any of the work. If you decide to do this project we will help you every step of the way.

    But just don't let that DES creep up on you half way threw the project :jester:

    lmao. got me w/ the DES. i'm thinkin this way West... if it costs me $2.5k to do this, then I will get that back on trade in difference between 2wd and 4wd alone. plus, it might make it easier for me to trade up to a diesel 4x4 if i already got a gas 4x4 to swap ya know? like i said, its after gettin married this summer. I do think it would be a nice "how-to" for the forum, one that surely no other forum would have.

    Very true.Allot of ppl wouldn't be footing the bill or doing the work.Then again there are some of us that would be footing the bill and doing our own work if we were undertake a mod such as Vano's.

    If i decided to go with with my Rocks for my truck.I would be footing the bill and doing all my own work.
