Got my truck in the shop right now getting my 4:88's put in. It should be finished today.
Do you guys think I will notice a huge improvement or just a small one?

 

assuming you had 3.73's and I am pretty sure you did... it will be a pretty big improvement especially if you are used to driving it like that...make sure you break them in right, its a painful process let me tell you...

 

If you don't mind, where are you having it done and how much did it cost you out the door?

 

It is at 4 wheel parts and its costing me $1900 with a 36000 mile warranty on parts and labor.

 

very cool! i have been thinking about gears myself. keep us informed.

 

I think you'll notice a night and day difference. I went from 3.73's to 4.56's for performance reasons, not due to larger tires, and the results were beyond what I expected. Everything I read on re-gearing emphasized proper break in, so I'd recommend doing so. Take it easy for the first 2-3 tanks of gas at a minimum.

 

YIKES!!!

The 4WP in Orlando told me $1600 OTD for Precission 4.88s with a Mag-Tech rear differential cover, and lifetime warranty. .

 

Yeah I know,
This was the cheapest I found in Houston for Precission 4.88s

 

Damn, you should of posted sooner. 4WP price matches and they better price match their other stores!

I guess it just proves how much mark up there is on this kind of stuff.

 

How is your truck coming along? Any problems, any new pics?

 

I have 4.88's and they are great. I paid about 1800, but thats what you get when there is not much competition.

 

i havent seen you on the forums in forever...prob since i got my truck done...

it only costs me 1100 for my yukon 4.56's....but your doing 4.88's so yeah

 

Yeah guess I took it in the rear but its all said and done now

Anyway it feels much different, im taking it easy til they break in but I can definately feel the difference in the way it shifts. The rpm's barely fall when it goes into the next gear.

Think im gonna like this

 

You will definatley like them. Im running 4.88s with 35s. Just got done with the break in.

 

Haha...ya they mark their stuff WAY up, but like you said they will price match anything. Normally they will beat it by a good amount for me since I go to their distribution center.
