I like the 8 shock setup myself. Honestly, as little as they need rebuilt, i dont see that as a problem. Im not sure how much faster an 8.0 MGT is than a 4.6, but the drivetrain is built a little tougher i know. </p>

 The muggy is a great truck too. Probably not quite as capable as an MT off road, but still more so than a truggy, with a very reliable driveline and good handling. The stock tires are Huge. </p>

 What are you doing with the truck? </p>
