whats it going in? will it even physically fit? and you'll probably need to beef up the suspension, to support the extra weight

oh and the trans, and rear end to support all the torque

suspension to hold it. possibly the inner cab harness/guage guage cluster and light bezel. possible rear axle, possibly t-case, transmission definitely, possibly front axle if 4x4. radiator support radiator, wiring. and you might find another thing or too ya need along the way
