    Was this in reference to the 400 or 800 (or both ?) being a driver, it won't be getting a bar/cage, but I can and will have the frame 'boxed' / strenghthend

    which TC and diffs would take like 800ish lb/ft of torque ? with 2wd the tires spin first, but with 4wd and traction, must have STRONG TC, driveshafts, differentials....any 3/4 or 1 ton parts I should know about ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0u880tgUc8
