Being you have 2wd, in light of gDMJoe's post, might be less of an issue than 4X4, No/Yes?

There are guys frequenting this forum, setting their trucks up with Rousch Superchargers, and running the Texas mile with stock drive shafts - at enormous speeds, no problems I've heard of.
My 2011 XLT was governed at 96mph, and I was told it was to match the speed rating of the tires also.

montanaman ... I was told it was to match the speed rating of the tires also.
So that don't fly. It's the driveshafts' critical speed issue.
Otherwise ... Slap-on some Z-rated tires (149+ MPH), remove the speed limit, and you'd be good-to-go. NOT!
Y'all might want to consider installing a driveshaft loop.
