For my build stock right now is just fine , I could see possibly fuel plate in the future but for a truck rolling on two different sizes 42 and 44"s with the 4.56 is just fine .
You can put a cummins in a stock truck just is a tight squeeze .
I have a 1" aluminum body for my clearance ... my suspension is custom Deaver springs and gives me a good 10" lift .
4:10 is a good ratio depends on your tire size and trans .
My NV4500 shifter is in the same location a stock shifter would come threw the floor on a factory truck .
All I can say is look thru my build and it was a ton of work ... I have basiclly worked on the truck just about every day for the past year and a half ... should be done for spring .
