Lots of good info built up here. just do a little reading and should get your basics figured out. Your biggest battle will be the weight gain from the gasser to the oil burner. Good luck...

My only concern would be rules that will not allow you to pull it in a 2.6 or workstock class with the Rockwell. Unless you have planned on going 3.0. But then again maybe they'll be forgiving because your only 2wd.

Awesome idea though. I've thought about a 2wd puller before.

^^^ Thus the reason i am going 3.0 Most orgs see it as a ODL truck even if its just the rear axle. My local orgs would let me run 2.6 but everywhere else had to run 3.0.

I don't see why clubs or organizations can't allow ODL in 2.6 for the 2wd guys. After all the 2wd guys are starting off with a slight disadvantage.

I ran a few seasons with a Dana 80.. spent more money trying to keep it together that i could have bought a really nice SQHD. lol I couldnt keep a R&P in more than about 3 hooks before it would shell one.. The 2 ton im running now hasnt offered to give a single bit of trouble.. After the 3.0 build is done i might be stressing it a little bit more.. but we will see.
