Adam,
My truck will see some use as a daily driver and I need to be able to drive it in 4wd in the snow, so a welded diff probably isn't the best solution

However, I may be able to get a set of spider gears to swap in or possibly go with an ARB, funds permitting.
One thing I'm wondering, if I go to a high pinion, could I use my stock front driveshaft (assuming I redrill the flange to match the stock bolt pattern). It's too short to work with the current setup (4" lift + axle 1" forward).

I need to do some measuring tonight. I'll let you know tomorrow if I want one.
Thanks,
Bob
