Yeah, it's pretty nice, but I've got other plans. Plans that are very specific (and evil).

Do these evil plans involve a IFS truck?

IFS and 3.0. Jeopardy answer... "what are the two items pulled first on a early 90's Toyota 4x4 when converting to a trail rig" :D

one gets pulled the other gets modified

When are you gonna realize IFS=Inferior Front Suspension

the 7.5 standard rotation is just not worth saving, even if you were to get some of those indestructible RCV CV shafts for it you would still have issues with the ring gear being so small with load on the coast side of the gears. Not to mention chewing through idler and torsion bars(the damn devil)

There are quite a few trails around here I would like to be able to run that simply can't be done on 33s.(for example everything over a 3 at barnwell)

Ever heard of the "flat belly" mod?

flat with 110 wheelbase and 33s is not going to be anywhere near the same as flat with 37s and 110 wheelbase. I was assuming a clocked transfer case and fabbed t-case x-member in my mind. Realistically only about half of the 3s can be done at barnwell (due to undercut ledges) requiring 37" or greater tires in order to simply clear the ledge once you get your front tires over it, then you get on the more difficult trails which required 37s in the first place and now factor in their erosion and ya you need the increased breakover angle larger tires provide

37s are cool if you want to go win rock crawling competitions. I know what 33s can and can't do.
