Re: It Is me Again

Tell me more about this "300" V8 you have, I've never herd of one.
Wouldn't you be losing torque with that engine swap?

I think there is a section for 4x4 questions.

Re: It Is me Again

Since you have a heavy duty 14 FF I would go with a Dana 60 front. Your rear gears are most likely 4:10 but check just to make sure you get the same up front.
