Just tested my new 4.56s and truetrac

Wow what a difference from 3.55 open. I can actually spin my 35s just by stepping on the gas (4.6v8). It turned my slug into a rocket. The only bad thing is it makes me want to go down more difficult trails. Which reminds me, does anyone know where I can get a new front bumper valence (very bottom plastic piece) for an 04-07 f150?

Where did you get your gears and how much was it? I have a 3.55 LSD, I'm looking to upgrade to atleast a 4.10 w/ limited slip.

Got them done at Eastern Truck and Accessories ( etaoffroad.com ). Bought most of the parts online from accuautoparts.com and ebay. In the end it was just under $2,000. It was well worth the money.

Hard to tell because I havent recalibrated the speedometer yet (only had them in for a week so far). I plan on doing that this week so I should have a number by the next tank of gas.
