lift, gears, tires, tuner (which order?)
ok guys i need help with deciding what order i should do things in, i have 4 things i want to do to my truck
1. Gears (4.30s)
2. Lift (spindle, shackle, AAL, shocks )
3. Tires (33x12.50)
4. Tuner
Tuner is last for sure, but my 18th birthday is coming up and i can get one of these for my birthday. hopefully all of this will happen this summer.
my question is what do you guys think about the order. will 4.30s be good with my current tires (265/75r16) and with the 33's. cuz i really dont want to do the lift without bigger tires, and i dont want to do bigger tires before i do gears. i have 3.55s as it is right now, and those are SLOW
lemme know what you guys think
and tommy, let me know if i can ride in your truck before i get my gears

I say do it in the order you posted. What kind of 33s are you getting? Have you considered 4.56 gears, I know some people run 4.56 & 33s.
Sure thing, let me know when (or maybe at that mini santiago meet you were talking about?)

well i have 3.55s now with 31.8s so i figure 4.30s will be much better than this even with 33s. and i dont want to do it all at once. im going to do the lift and tires at the same time, but i figured i could do gears now. so i guess the question is now, is 4.30s ok for 33x12.50. and just to clarify, those tires will fit under my truck without rubbing with a spindle lift, correct?

33's will fit fine with a spindle lift. As for the 4.30's they will be good with the 33's also. I think that is the recommended combination according to the TRS chart. Well it was for me anyway.
With 33's and 4.30's towing will not be as nice. It would be easier with the 4.56's but your truck will do it with the 4.30's
