Thats a nice selection of "modest customizations and upgrades" you have planned. Are you going to be buying a hydro boost kit or putting one together yourself? DIY4x4 has the nicest rear disc brake brackets that I have found and are at an affordable price. I was also wondering how you like the 4.10 gearing with the drive train mods you have done or do you ever wish the gearing was lower? I have a 1 ton 14 bolt in my garage that I'm prepping to put in and have been debating if I should gear it to 4.56. The truck still has the muncie tranny but I hope to be able to afford an extra fifth gear some day. Keep up the good work and post lots of photos on how the upgrades come along over the winter.
