Dana 60 Swap!
I have some pics I'll get them up sooner or later.
Bigger tires? I might go a little larger. It sits about perfect right. Even with smaller tires I gained some lift from the larger axles. It's still primarily a work truck right now.
It's a 241ld.

Well, sort of. I have driven it around the block. But I haven't been able to put the new calipers on yet because it has been crazy windy today.
Tomorrow looks good though. Then the truck will be done
