    You didn’t want to order an assembled third from ECGS and install yourself?

    I had to have my R&P swapped out in my 2001 Dodge Ram. I had the work done at Glenn’s Alignment in Costa Mesa, they’re more of an old school rod shop, but I trust them to do the work right.

    good news.. getting a new frame... now to find, figure out how to afford (buy) and receive a mid travel suspension before the frame gets in... I've already got Alcan leaf pack, that should be good enough right??? Looking at Fox, maybe Icon.. any advise for a mid-travel?

    Ordered my 4.88s from ecgs. Had to give up my mechanical lsd rear for a Detroit trutrac. Should be here in 2 weeks. Planning a trip to the mountains to see my mom in a month, couldnt do a 5 hour drive in the mountains with this slug. Will post back when installed to further the opinion on re-gearing with weight and tires.

    Another reason out of many as to why I didn't use ECGS.

    I think a truetrac is more reliable than a clutch style lsd like mine. Plus I live 2 hours from ecgs so shipping is 1 day.

    That is inaccurate information that is spread on TW. Yes my 2006 PreRunner SR5 came with a factory LSD. It was available up to 2008.
