ifyou going to use it to haul I would have it bulid at a pro tranny shop. for pulling.


if your just draging it around Id use the stock stuff.

I recommend having it built stronger either way. I had a 700r4 in mine for a while and went through 3 heavy duty built 700r4s. They werent designed for heavy vehicles/hauling.
