Well I've put a bunch of miles on it now. A few minor problems with the truck as expected. Power steering blew out an O ring. Some sticky 4wd parts.

Mileage has been ok I think. I just ran the first tank of fuel threw it. 321 miles to 20.3 gal. This is me driving the truck into the ground and trying to break it. Plus letting it warm up in the mornings due to the cold.

About 16mpg I think. Not bad considering the driving style used on an auto non lock up truck. Best I could get before was 18mpg.

Biggest difference is the driving feel. Cruise is no longer 65 mph cruise at more than 50% throttle to 75-80mph at 30% throttle. Braking is also greatly improved between the rear disks and the weight loss.

All in all it worked out great so far. Next thing it really needs is a trans update.
