Not sure how that front end is going to survive very long, not to mention those rims. If not an OD tranny those 3.25 gears are going to suck. The 3spd trucks ran a 3.08 gear to manage highway speeds.
Front end is reinforced, crossmember all new, Firm Feel T-Bars, Disc brakes. Wheels are rated at 2200lbs each. Trans is an OD 47rh (fancy diesel truck 727) so 2k at 70mph with the current height tires in the rear. Not my first rodeo <span class='smallblacktext'>[ Edited Tue Jun 15 2010, 02:45PM ]</span>
And I am running a 4k governor spring kit. The first gen dodges with the non-OD 727s were also crippled with pumps that de-fueled at around 1800rpm stock. This engine will fuel all the way to 4k all day long.
