    yeah, you'd have to find a front set before winter sets in.

    but can i drive my truck just in 2wd until then?i wanna know for sure cause i do wanna change to 4.10 ,i just cant have the down time till later in the season.i was told i couldnt change to 4.10s just in the back unless i changed the fronts also.i know in the older trucks you could have different ratios as long as you didnt engage 4wd.i drove many of trucks with diff rear ratios,till changed them around.i just didnt know if i could do it on mine ,beeing an o4 without screwing something up.

    I ran two different ratios in my old 4wd with no issues in the dirt. On the street it would bind up. In 2wd it doesn't matter at all, or at least it didn't used to.

    Because it's too small for the weight when a lot of power is put to it with traction.

    I see no problem with running different ratios as long as you stay in 2WD.

    you can buy the fronts seperately but they are cut going the opposite direction and I think they are a smaller size, may be wrong on that part.
