Changing rear end gears help??
I would like to change the rear gears to a 4.10 limited slip insead of my 3.75 I think it is... for towing, but I do a lot of logging road, and winter snow driving, and If I change the rear end gears and I put my truck into 4x4 would the truck just lock up on the road because the front tires are spinning faster then the rears? or would it compensate somehow? what does it cost to fix the problem and can I just change the transfer case gears ??(I dont quite know what the transfer case does?)

wow you have a nice truck, when i'm done college I will probably go for that fabtech lift... how does it work for you? it seems to be pretty damn good for the money and doesnt look like it messes with your torsion bars..
and thanks on the gears thing, I guess that makes sense, but where are the front gears located since our trucks are a-arm ?
is that in the transfer case?

i love the lift it is great, wish i would have saved my money and gone with a full throttle 10" lift tho but it is pricey 3000$, it is located in the front diff, if i was you i would go get a hanes or chiltons manual for your truck and read throu it, you will learn all types of cool stuff about it and get a understanding of were everything is and how it works, i wouldnt do a ring and pinion gear change if i was you it is pretty difacult if you dont know what you are doing i am a mechanic and it is time consuming hope this helps
