I would worry about latteral flex. I'd use larger dia tube for stability, and do not recomend ridged spacers for the cab. They will transmit all road and engine noise and vibrations, as well as have no flex as you go off roading. Eventually the body (cab) mounts will fail.

Well I did that on all the body bolts and mounts. I don't care about noise and all the bumps i know that and it don't bug me because it is just straight off road truck not street.
