so i've decided i'm gonna run 4.56's in my dana 30 and 8.25. im upgrading to a 29-spline for the rear and eventually chromolly shafts in the front, i have some big questions though. actually only one. do i want reverse cut or stand cut for the dana 30 gears? whats the difference and why is this?

It depends if the front is high pinion or if it is low pinon. The difference is if the pinion is above or below the ring gear. If its high you want reverse, if its low you want standard. The reason is you will be driving on the coast side of the gear if you get it wrong.

my friend has them on his Ram 2500, they are amazing. prolly the best performing and longest lasting tires ive ever seen, hes already put 15,000 miles on em and theyre still like new. i've been working so much overtime so i can have them by next spring. hahaha

4 inch backspacing should be alright I think thats what I have and I'm on a 3 inch lift. Just cut the front fenders generously and cut and fold the rear if need be. oh and bumpstop bumpstop bumpstop  |
