The only thing I would b concerned with is your transmission holding up. I would think that would go before your engine.
A friend of mine put 24's on his 4.7L Dodge Ram QCSB, and his transmission blew in a couple months. Now, before everybody starts opening up on me, I don't know his driving habits. He may have driven the dog sh*t out of that truck, and thats why the trans went. Either way, it definitely scared me away from going with 24's on my truck. Think I'm sticking with either 20's or the SRT-10 22's.

xill your truck is looking awesome. you going to be adding some fender flares, looks like those tires stick out quit a bit. and i know what you guys mean by not being able to sleep waiting for your truck to be completed. my truck was gone for three days at the shop getting the lift done.

I think with fender flares it makes it look smaller.. But thats just me.

if you're running low-profile tires then yea 4.56s would do alot and you'd have a better running system than you do now if you're sitting at stock gears like 3.55s. if you want 24s on larger tires like 37x13.5s or 38x14s (your only choices for beefier rubber with 24s) then take advantage of the fact that you can run 4.88 gears. the 4x4 boys can't go any higher than 4.56s 4x4s also have problems with tires over 35" tall due to their CV axles. 2wd does have it's advantages (and disadvantages)... im by no means an expert though, this is just info i've picked up from the guys here and from nick over at airram.com (he's a guru when it comes to our 3rd gen 4.7s)
