If it's open and he does not get retarded with the skinny pedal it should be alright.

Not ideal by any means, but not busting shafts at the drop of a dime either.

why not get the 44 i got mine for 300 bucks then dumped 700 in it to do the disc's and the rebuild. or just get the 8.8 with the discs they are a dime a dozen i see them all the time for 100 to 200 bucks

No the shocks mounts have to be re-welded and the spring perches too. E-brake cables have to be modified as well. Needs a spicer flange to mount your driveshaft to it too.

the 8.8 might still be the least expensive route though they are cheap and plentiful ann junk yard should have a couple of them and you can reuse the brackets if you don't wreck them taking them off.
