    Tell me all the reasons i need 4.56's.

    i live off 70mph roads, and while i plan on taller tires and dont have the extra 1-1/2th gear the a750 has i have no qualms about the trucks acceleration, and manually control OD to around 50-55 or so. 4lo is already almost too slow. I dont mind creeping when im at the back of the line, but if i'm in the middle i'm usually happy in 2nd/lo.

    i'm trying to buy some f250 solid axles, doubt i'll get em for what im willing to give, but the truck has been sitting with a window down for over a year...but i'd be able to get bigger tires under it...but the original plan was to stuff em under the jeep.

    anyway. The only reason i can justify 4.56's is if i get straight pipes, headers, and itb's. And let the neighbors hate me... maybe 12:1 pistons & e85...

    All your bass are belong to us

    Get so you can get straight pipes, headers, and ITBs. And so you can let the neighbors hate you.

    Are open headers legal in TX? I’m gonna guess no.

    duh. You're supposed to show me the pro's; like drifting on rainy days, locked & clocked. Easier to break em loose & walk em sideways, but thats not a situation i come across often enough. I've accepted that i'm worthy of the squall, but not a smoke trail. But a locker might change that. 4.56's could help.
