I actually want to keep the TTB as it works very well with my intended situation.

If by some chance I really get into serious off-roading. I would build a frame, and use brand F super duty parts for solid axles.

With my limited 4x4 knowledge, and more importantly friends who go alot. My ability to modify can get the best of me fast.

I have even just thought about running a 14 bolt with 8 Lug wheels. Till I get around to conversion. Since steel rims are $100 it is not a big deal for a year or two.

Just thinking out loud before I start to commit money to the cause here.
