Re: 700r4 is about to force me to sell the truck!!!!!

The weakest link will fail. Strong engine, built tranny, blown diff. Once you redo the diff, make sure your U-joints are good.

It's OK man, happens to the best of us.

Those 700R's "love" 3.42's and 3.73's. The 3.73 is a good combo for fuel mileage while still keeping some launch ability (the 700R has a nice and low 1st gear ratio anyway.)
