That's a really nice looking ride!   Which axles are you running now? 
I would have thought you'd already have a d44 up front and the oem in the back.

Those MTRs?  How much did you get them for?  37's must be nice, air them down and you're still around a 35 and decent ground clearance!

the waggy axle is only 60-1/2 wide , im changing out the rear axle to a ford 9 " which is 65" wide , even with 2 " spacers up front on the waggy axle thats only 64-1/2 wide

with the hp ford d44 and chevy outers ill be at 66-1/2" wide

yeah that sucked , pretty much the only 37's you can get in a 15" rim anymore are the super swampers and for something i drive to the trail and back i didnt want to go that route

i got lucky on the old style MTR's especially brand new

Gotcha.  I think the only issue with the HP44 is the gears available, iirc.
I know TheKing went from the nissan oem to a GM 14 bolt and is pretty happy with it.

Looks like bobbing your bed is next on the list Grin

just curious, what gearing are you using with the 37s. trying to decide on a ratio for the wifes xterra. I have a waggy front to rebuild and she wants to use the h233b, so its pretty much 5.13/14 or 5.87/89. she still likes to take it on the road now and then.
