First of all, which gearing would most benefit me? With 3.31s and 35.1" tall tires I HAVE to run 75+ to keep the truck from being a lugging fuel hog. With that said, I averaged over 21mpg in a recent 1,350mile trip at 77mph, so no complaints on long trips. But that really isn't always feasible. With the current gearing there just seems to be a couple dead spots. I thought throwing power at the truck would fix those thosedead spots, and while it did, it didn't fix them all.

I'm thinking 3.73s would be a solid step up. I'm not opposed to 4.10s but that may be a bit too much gear?

Anyone have insight to how much gears (front and rear, dang it!) and/or install should feasibly run?

I've got 3.55s with 35" tires and plan on switching to 4.10s. My mileage sucks anyway.This should keep me above my turbo most of the time...Iirc Sunrise price was around $900 for both. Idk about installation and setup though.....
