Thanks for your input though.

Not a bad question Bro!I think a rear wing would be more for adding downforce while at speed and not so much for mid flite leveling. On a bumpy track where the rear end is jumping around it may make it more stable tho!Cheers!!!

Take off the wheels and access the screws from the in side of the wheel.

Thicker oil in front will give more on power steering and less steering off power. Thicker oil vs thinner makes more like positive traction.

when you change your front diff
you lose off power steering
put you gain on power steering.

it helps pull the truck thought the turns as you get back on the gas.

droping your center diff is going to be less 4 wheel drive action in turn making the truck easer to drive and feel like you losen your slipper

think of it as a giant fluid filled slipper the bigger the number the tighter i just made my sliper
