    So then are you still debating going LT up front? You know if you do...that rear may not feel as awesome as it does now.

    I hung out with linked trucks all weekend. Skip the +3.5 and sua, just drop the truck off at solo motorsports or lsk along with all of your credit cards and first born child. Pick it up a few months later and be happy

    Yes if you wanted to remove the t case too. But then you would have to get a new tranny. Much smarter to leave the t case

    Sarcasm because all Jeff ever talks about is how he lives in Kansas and wants a prerunner

    Sounds like a good time to drop it off.

    It's time to reevaluate if you find yourself in a situation where your 16 year old self would bitch slap your current self...

    Yeah this. Before I can finance a RTT I'll be sleeping in the bed. I think a properly tuned 14" setup will perform nicely for my use. It's gonna take a long time for me to get the funds for the front (2+ most likely TC or Baja Kits) So I'd like to make progress in the rear first because ya'll have said having the rear out perform the front is the ticket from get-go. Plus, LT front and stock rear is poser mode.
