I believe so, but I'm not positive.  Are you running a driveshaft with a carrier bearing for the rear?  That would be the main problem I would see, would be driveshaft clearnace in the rear.

i think you can, but you will need to grind out part of the plate for driveshaft clearance, i know i have read of people doing that on here

I'd hold off on installing it until you get your duals then.  You can always weld some plate to the bottom of the stocker for a little more protection until then.  It'll save you the trouble of installing it, just to take it off and reinstall it when you get your duals as well.  May as well do it all at the same time, especially if you don't want to modify the crossmember.

You didn't answer my question earlier though.  If you are running a carrier bearing, I do believe that you wouldn't have to modify the crossmember.  I'm not 100% positive, but if you are running a carrier bearing, I can go out and see what kind of clearance that would have with the crossmember tommorow :thumbs:
