    They're making a beefed up IFS steering rack so that they don't break so easily. Check out big Mike's 3rd gen. It's holding up to 40s soo I'm digging it. I don't wanna ditch ifs cause Lt and the steering upgrade is way cheaper and will allow me to do the roadtrips and crawling

    Solo Motosports already has something out for you guys. They chop down a tundra rack, and you make the mounts to your frame. Lot of fab work, but some of the 4x4 long travel guys are doing it. Not sure if they ship out of the country.

    I have an American address box as well.. but the Marlin rack is bolt on application. Not looking to Jimmy rig something especially when 3 link is on the table. At 5k for a front diamond axle the ifs option is tempting and would have the least amount of down time

    How were the stock gears with the 35s when you first got them? How long until you switched?

    It wasn't that bad. I went a whole week before switching to 4.88s I dropped to like 12 mpg and had no 5th gear. It would have been rough on the truck offroad though. I need more gear now as it is because the truck has gotten heavier since this post was created
