Yup yup, got my truck outta the shop on Friday and drove it on a trip to Ocotillo Wells. Man what a difference in power, I love it !

So much better then that stock 7.5 piece of ca ca. The only problem is I'm running them on 32's and I need to upgrade to 35's, it's a bit overkill but not too bad.

4:56's ftw!

 

ha ha ha, I have 4.10's and 31's so I could only imagine what that must be like. I personally know I need to swap my engine out. its getting so tired. But nice, you should throw up some speedo shots of the gears and tires making a run.

 

hell ya! im runnin 33s and 4.56s and its perfect! just wish i had another gear in the transmission

 

I love 4.56's. I ahve 33's and 4.56's also. IT is amazing in 4low. The thing feels unstoppable in 4low.

 

Will do, I'll take a video of me smashing down the street, but for now I have a video up on youtube from this past weekend.

Anyways, I wish I would have upgraded them sooner the power up hills and shifting is amazing.

I really want 35's now

 

I just got my 33" tires put on and I feel nothing wrong with the stock 3.73's. I am happy with the extra gas milage on the highway. City driving seems nearly the same to me, although I have a 4.0L...

 

ha yea i was rollin 33s and stock 3.55s and it cruised the highway awsome. but took forever and a day to get to speed haha

 

Really? It takes off just fine with little gas and gets to speed just fine. I've never punched the gas with the stock tires, so I wouldnt be able to tell if the tires make the truck significantly slower or not. I am gentle on my truck. Maybe it is the extra initial torque my engine has vs the SOHC, I dont know. The truck was dirt slow then and it is dirt slow now. I don't feel much difference. :-p
How can larger gears NOT give better gas milage on the highway? I am sure they help out a little. My truck is a highway truck anyway.
(If the engine or trans ever go, V8 here I come :) )

 

ha! dont we all
