    Going to use the locking hubs on the axle. It'll be a rig that can drive cross country if need be and tackle just about any trail the owner wants.

    that's the way to go. Years back the only options was Warn locking hubs and those tended to grenade themselves on these big axles, so lots of guys ran drive slugs. But now there are super strong options. I got the yukon locking hubs and they seem really beefy. Dynatrac has pretty awsome stuff too.

    Yeah, I have the Yukon super hubs on mine as well and really like them. The Dynalocs seem like they are very similar and are stronger than the Warn hubs.

    Hell yeah @awsumdc !! I'll be keeping an eye on this build. This is more of what I had in mind for my truck so I'm interested in seeing how things turn out. What's the plan for the rear? Going 14" coils or keeping leafs? Wondering if you'll be cutting into the bed and how it'll be set up.
