35 psi Is actually a lot of air!! think about having 35 pounds on every inch of that tire. When I worked in a welding shop and we made fuel tanks we test the welds with only 3psi. The steel bulge out with that.

Nice. Well you will have to post some pics once you get them built. And once you get your tires on.

Exactly right man. I am gonna be taking pics as I do the install of my ZF6. Can't wait to have a 6 speed in my truck. Gonna be sick!!!
That would work. And for extra security you can pull your front drive shaft.

Haha that would be awesome!! I got a ZF6 out of a 02 f250. It is gonna replace my 5 speed. I have to do a body lift for it and a bunch of other stuff. I have a thread started already.
