So Ive decided to get the bumper, but instead of the 2 38" LED bars Im going to go with 4 KC 69 Series Lights, Driving Beam, Then for the Light bar over the bed I'll use 4 69 Series Long Range Lights.

4.56's will work, but if you're in that 37-38" range a lot of guys go ahead and spring for the 4.88's.

The company at which I have a contact only offers a 4.88 for the front diff, 4.56 is the biggest they offer for the rear.

I know that there are other company's that offer ring and pinion kits for this truck, but why spend the extra money if I can get them for almost free

Because you don't want to run different gears front and back?
