You should be ok for a while. Start thinking bout the 12 bolt or 9 inch though. I am running a stock 10 bolt with 4.10's and is holding up with the et streets, but not for long...

If you don't get rid of the hop it can brake at any time tire hop will kill your rear

I think that you want relocation brackets if it's
lowered, better shocks if it's lowered with higher-
rate springs. And practice driving for maximum
acceleration within the adhesion limits rather
than wheelspin. You accelerate faster if you don't
spin, anyway. If you have a suspension-geometry-
induced hop problem, stickier tires may make things
worse instead of better; more violent. Be a smoooth
lovah until you can get the suspension sorted.
