I’m trying to get it up and running right now, then start upgrading and replacing everything, starting with the wiring, then rebuilding....everything. Currently looking at a Dana 60 to replace my Dana 44 front end

That’s more like it! Those aam disk brake 14’s are pretty sweet I’ve got 2 of them my self. That and a 60 should be bomb proof. Just an FYI somewhere around ‘11 or ‘12 (can’t remember the exact year off the top of my head) or so they changed the wheel bolt pattern to a metric pattern. Before then the bolt pattern is the same as our trucks. Maybe in another thread you could post some pictures of your progress we love pictures around here! With your goals in mind I think I’d suggest going with a hydraboost setup and a disk disk master cylinder personally. I’ve got the hydraboost on mine and it’s one of the best mods I’ve done to it so far. If your curious on how I did it, there’s pictures on the last few pictures in the link in my signature.
