Can your rear end handle slicks?

It'll cost you about 800 plus the install unless you do it yourself. I just bought all myself, I got moser 31 spline axles, eaton posi, and an install kit from buyfordracing.com

yeah you can run drag radials without building your rear but come slicks its a whole new ball game...honestly i dont think you need slicks with just a bolt on gt
