New Gears on the way!

i went by my local 4x4 shop and ordered my gears today. 4.56 Yukons. I cant wait to get power back after going bigger on my tires. Gotta squeeze all I can out of my V6. I will post results asap.

You'll love 'em.

Gears aren't flashy, and people who don't regear for larger tires always think that their performance is "good enough"...until they either swap them or drive in someone's truck who has done it.

Exactly, gears are the best mod expensive but the best mod, IMO

i actually debated that but after talking to my 4x4 guy he said that 4.56 would be more than enough and with the 4.88 my hwy mileage might suffer and i do drive alot. I have the bfg at ko 305/65/18 E rated tire which are MUCH bigger and heavier than my 235/70/17 hankooks.

NITE and DAY difference from 3.55 to 4.56. Best (and most expensive) mod yet!
