Has anyone seen this done or have any info on what type of axle would work...? A Dana 60...? Is there a Chevy axle I can use? I want a 4 link setup to lift it 15" or higher? I don't want a 18" FTS with a HUGE front crossmember, etc. My truck has the 12 bolt rear. I had a guy at East Coast Gears recommend a Dana 60 and a 14 bolt??? Any thought/recommendations? And no...I didn't want a 2500, 3500, etc... I don't understand these guys on here that are dogging out there own 6.2's? Truck is a BEAST...420hp factory & a 10speed... I've had Zero issues with mine. I know somebody is gonna say..."not until you do the swap, lol..."

Yeah...had that backwards didn't I...El Toro was closing and went to Miramar is what I meant... Guy from East Coast Gears said it is welded? I remember this one woman Marine that was CFR at Cherry Point...she was so ridiculously HOT! Everyone on the base was all over her, lol...surprised she made it, lol. Have any idea where I could get a Dana 60 & 14 Bolt...? I wonder if I could get "AnyLevelLift" to fit, lol? Trying to take this show build to the next level...I know it's a 1500 but it's actually my daughter's truck so it makes more sense....kinda, lol. The wheels are 26x16 Rogue 2-piece forged concave in total show chrome...takes 8 blanks to make them. They were going on a SEMA build for 2020 but there guy totaled his truck and SEMA never happened last year anyway. Got an incredible deal on them as they start at $12K.

Semper Fi Devil Dog!!! I'm a veteran too...6030 Aircrew "flight mech" KC130. Got out in 98'. Was stationed at Cherry Point...my ex wife was a Navigator on same bird stationed at Miramar before everything went to El Toro...then she went there after Cherry Point. Had quite a few friends that were Crash, Fire, Rescue...

Hey "new dude" "AJM" why would they weld it and make it unserviceable?

Uhhhhhh...??? Is that a thing, lmao!? Forgive my ignorance...I'm a Marine Corps aircraft mechanic. Can you fit that in there?

Doesn't it though, lol...

Well...I know I'm gonna catch A Lot of ****** for this but it's going up on a custom 18" lift with 44X19.50R26 Interco Boggers. I know one other person doing the same thing for a SEMA build. He said he had to change the whole front assembly and was gonna check on what parts the shop used? He said he has 4:88's...not sure how he got those in the rear or where he got them? I was thinking he needed one step higher than than the 88's. I also don't think he has the 6.2L or the 10 speed but he does have the 9.76. I'm not worried about tuning it...that's a given!

So my 2020 RST 6.2L has the 9.76 rear and apparently you can only get 3:73 gears for it??? I need at least 4:88s to accommodate wheels & tires. Also talked to East Coast gears and they said the front cannot be swapped because the carrier is welded! Does anyone know if this is true? They suggested I put in a Dana 60 in the front and a 14 bolt in the rear???!!! Anyone know if any of this is accurate???
