2000 lariat 4x4 with 3" body and 35's



owned it for 3 weeks now. just installed 3in body, 2" add-a-leaf, and torsion bar crank this weekend with new wheels/tires. went 18"x10" and 35's. came stock with 3.55's and initially i was thinking 4.56's and even bought them. well when i went to install them this weekend i found out i had a 9 3/4 rear end. not a big deal but after driving it around with the lift and 3.55's im thinking i might want to go 4.10's. thoughts?

oh one more thing. another initial purchase i made that i had trouble installing...key ways. i bought the 3" key ways and went to install them and broke a 10" clamp in the process and bent another one. bit scary. anyway i went with the stock ones and cranked them all the way out and pleased with the outcome but has anyone else experienced this? if i do ever go to install them im taking it to 4-wheel parts for sure though.

Nice truck! I would not install the aftermarket torsion bar adjustment keys. THey are a bad idea. They allow you to put way, way too much preload on your torsion bars. This creates extreme CV and ball joint angles which leads to premature wear and tear and they destroy your ride quality.
