what gears are best for my 38's?
My truck has a 8 inch suspension lift and 3" body on 38x15.5 Mickey Thompson Baja Claws. My truck also has stock gears.. I average about 7mpg around town, 4mpg pulling a landscape trailer all day, about 13mpg with the cruise set at 55mph, and about 10-11 on the interstate at 75-80mph.. what are the best gears to get? i want to maintain some take off power and torque, but if i can see a big enough difference with my gas milleage, i will sacrifice both of those with a new set of gears.. any suggestions guys?

yeah, like a 40-60 pass on the highway is not impressive at all. with foot to the floor it still drags ***.. my brother in law has a stock 02? Z71 and we lined up and the street and i whooped his *** from 0-45 or so by about 2 full truck lengths. but from 45-80+ he pulled on by me and kept pulling off..

with those 38's and that much lift a regear would probably do more or as much than a supercharger at this point. ya, it will feel that much different.
he ya go so you don't have to ask.
