If you plan on a lft and 35s, remember you will definately need gears then. You will need 4.56 gears with 35s. Or you could just send me some of that extra cash you got laying around. I need some new mods.

you dont need gears with 35s and definately dont need a 4.56. a 3.73 will do you just fine.

how do you figure 3.73 will be fine? He has 3.42 with 33" now, and it is too low. Yes 3.73 will turn the tires, but he will be way out of the power band, and power and milage will suffer drastically. If you call any company that sells gears, they will tell you 4.56 as long as you have an overdrive.

I have 33.5" with 4.10. 70 mph is 2000 rpm.
On the other hand the tires are listed as 35". Due to width, rim, and wieght they are smaller.

i think it depends on what you're doing, but i wouldn't go any lower than 4.10, but 4.56 would most likely work... i dont know just my two cents

Cracker i already have wheels.

And not sure if i need the lift. But it would come in hand on my hunting lease. And if i go with a lift and 35" tires then i would go with 4:56 like smoke20 said. Then maybe my gas mileage wont suffer as bad.

Speaking of inscriptions on the tailgates I saw one that made me chuckle a couple of weeks ago, no offense to anyone in here but on the back of a lifted 92-93 GMC (6" with 35s) read "Low riders are for guys who can't get it up!" Lol, I respect the lowriders (trucks anyway) but you have to admit its funny.

I've always been a fan of "get a lift, fat chicks can't jump"
