Go with a different tire mickey t's are not that great, if its a street cruiser then go Nitto or a Irock radial or bias.

I ran a 39.5/13/20 on my ram and got 30k out of a bias ply which is great at around $300 a tire when I got them.

Nice truck, get some gears or your going to need a trans really soon.

Looks good, I would ditch the hood scoops though.

Stock axles and diffs?

Yes. Stock front and rear. The man that built it just built it to cruise. He had no clue about solid axles, gears, tune, or anything like that.

Good looking truck, just get you some gears in that thing(you need more than 4.56), and if it has lift blocks ditch those too. Oh and I put a lot of miles on my tranny with stock gears and 35's and it was wore out when I got it.
