should I

[Boggen Joe]

Should I stay with my 1 tons 4:88s with 44s
Or should I go to 2.5 rocks with 48-52 V treads
Just throwing ideas around. I don't have any problems becides trans but the FTI will fix that

[michigan maniac]

Will be harder to fit in your garage with Rockwells... Guess you'll have to raise the garage and put a hoist in

[BigFrank]

one thing is how many   other things would ya have too change too put the bigger axles in

[just one more]

if it aint broke dont fix it, you will never keep up with the jonse's lol

[Captn. J]

rocks i would say since you can get them for 1k  from  me    one tons re probably same priced or a lil more     thats just me      run what u want

[BAD APPLE]

My main concern with rocks is how do the Gus get good wheel speed out of them with such low gearing? And what is the weight difference between a complete Dana 60 and a complete Rockwell

when my 2.5 rocks (1 front and 1 rear) came in on the frieght truck the slip said 1900 lbs flat, but thats with everything on them still from the M35A2 they came out of. but even when i de-braked them i prolly only lost 200-250 lbs-ish, but then i added my pinion brakes and lockers so i didnt lose much cause the lockers wiegh 9 lbs on there own and the pinion brake prolly wieghs 7-8 lbs complete? in all honesty the only place i can think of that i lost weight is switching from a cast iron NP205 t-case to a SCS t-case

If you want to be light and fast/ wheel speed stay with the one tons, if you want to be slower with tractor tires go with the rocks, unless you plan on 4 linking the whole thing and building a nice big block to gain some wheel speed back,

[Bowtie972]

Its personal preference Joe....  Im glad I did it.. If you do it, 4 link it and be done... biggest regret I have is goin leaf spring... and I know that is a big argument amongst people too.. leafs or 4 link..

If your happy with 44's, that's all that matters..

My truck is no more.. tore down, new build starting, all 4 link, new motor, big cubic inch..


I ran 1 year with rocks and 44's and I year with V treads,   I wouldn't go back for nothing.. love the v treads..

The mega truck thing is getting huge and only getting bigger....wildtime is building an off road park for mega trucks which will be awesome too

[littleripper]

Just fix the trans AND RUN THE dog crap out of it

18.4-16.1 tractor tires aren't that hard in 1 tons they even weight less then a 44 bogger

Lol keep the 1 tons. Once you start breaking your 1 tons. Then upgrade. My opinion.
