I would say you would be alright with a driveshaft spacer, but thats just me. If you want it to be "professional" I guess you could shell out the extra for the new shaft.

My question is.. How will the stock shaft handle when forcing 40s to start spinning?

Yeah see the thing is im leaning towards a spacer as well due to me leaving for Germany the first week of May and the truck pretty much sitting and not going anywhere. But as im gone it will be getting kings in all 4 corners, driveshafts, leaf packs, traction bars ( hopefully if Rize stops being lazy ) , Road armor bumpers F/R ( Maybe ) , Paint Job to Matte or Flat Black.

Dang son.. I see what you are writing but all I see are $$$ signs. I wouldnt think that rize would be in any kind of hurry though man. I have been waiting on nfab for steps for almost two months now, and it was their fault because they sent me the wrong stuff . I dont think those companies care about us

Its going to look awesome flat black. I would get your wheels done the same

Yeah ill be in Germany so insurance and gas money will go towards the mods sense I won't be driving it haha. Plus even more when I deploy again.

Yeah Rize customer service has been crappy but w.e... They still owe me the rear brake line drop brackets and said it would take 1 1/2 months to get it to me.

Everything will be blacked out.
