One big question for you here: Why would you swap a different axle in that is weaker, would require a decent amount of fabrication to mount, would require either special 6x5.5 axle or adapters, require changing the rear brake/parking brake system, require a custom driveshaft, and require the front diff and rear axle to be regeared to a matching (or close) ratio?

Second smaller question/suggestion: Maybe start ONE new thread instead of starting a new thread for each of your questions. Or maybe try asking in this thread: The 3rd Gen All Questions Allowed Thread Do you really need a new thread for every question you have?
