Strap the front axle to the frame as tight as you can, you will REALLY want the front end tight and low! I hope you don't have to much tire. Can't wait to see some updates. When I had my pulling truck my pulling hitch mounted in between the rear frame wells about 1ft from the rear of the truck, very high, had to cut a whole out of the bed to put the hook on. If you arn't running ladder bars you can use a chain and binder to chain the rear axle back to the pulling hitch to keep it from wrapping to hard, little things that work...

If you can't run blocks you will want a leaf pack that is so think and rock hard that nothing can squat it, the way it looks you will have the front end off the ground.
