    Update: Sometimes, things happen quickly.

    First I found out @Zac of all trades had a spare axle housing.
    Then @TACORIDER parted out his front/rear/steering rack, etc
    Then I found hydro bumps for sale... maybe @RonRon23 's. I forget their handle.
    Then @Jkriegs.13 needed a place to store his welder.

    Availability of parts and the timeline lined up perfectly; I couldn't say no.

    ...so now it's on 35's, 4.88's, and double locked. New bumps are so much smoother, and the gear ratio handles much better than before.
