Daddy's monster truck

First off it isn't really a monster truck, it is just what my kids call it.

I bought this truck about two years ago and it was all stock minus add a leafs all around. i replaced those the next summer with a 2.5" lift with 33" tires.

last month i changed out the 3.08 gears in the axels to 4.10 and wow what a difference! I went from a sad 13mpg to about 17mpg and could finally use my OD on my 700r4.

this last week i replaced the engine and transmission out. The engine is a turn key ZZ4 with hedman headers. Behind that is a new to me 700r4 from bowtie overdrives.

I must say I couldn't have done this without all of the insight this web site has given me. My hat is off to all of you.

Thanks,
Dan
