Get them torque boxes welded up to. And for an auto a 4.10 will be just fine. Even a 3.73 will do. Just make sure to get the right speedo gear.

one of two things, get a set of adjustable drag shocks or traction bars. first thing i would do is check the upper torque pan for damage also as this will cause serious wheel hop if its damaged to the point where the axle is pulling away from it.
