Good upgrade, but I'd spent that money on a rear locker, and maybe high steer. Get those sliders welded on, and wheel it and see what needs changing next.

All the low gearing in the world won't make a difference if one of the rear wheels is hanging in mid air, and you don't have a locker.

Nice truck, BTW.  :thumbs:
