this fall/winter im converting over to a drw with 4:10's i got an axle and new bed, spacers and wheels. new helix 2 cam, ported oringed head, roll pan exhaust brake, air bags and hopefully lower it a tad too. also a new paint job. maybe if i can find a cheap s475 or ht3b ill make my self a set of twins. anybody have any advise or concerns for me:Cheer:
 
probably not, but im going to be transfering closer to home real close like probably riding my bike everyday and i rather have the comfort of those extra wheels and running a little bit cooler i hope. i know my mileage now, towing is horrible

I just swapped my 4.10's for 3.55's.. I couldn't stand the 4.10's.. Also, don't go to electric fans. That was a waste of over $600 for me.. No performance, mileage, or cooling gain. Actually, the stock fan worked better than the large dual fans I had.. I just don't want to see others waste their money..
 
Adding an electric fan to assist AC performance is a good idea, replacing the stock fans with electrics isn't. I believe the stocker rates to 8800 CFM.
 
You going to be using the airbags to handle the loads? Just curious because I may be thinking a little harder about selling that gooseneck you inquired about.
