thanks cowboy,

i wanted to go with a set of 4.88 gears about a year ago but they weren't on the market for a 14 bolt diff. ( 8 lug 3/4 ton axels ) but im in luck supirior and yukon make them now. just waiting to do my 411 pcm swap and gears at the same time so that take my truck to local speedshop and get a dyno tune.

Ultimate TBI mods, full exhaust, e-fans, CAI(or open element intake), cam and a custom tune. Then enjoy.

14SF gears have been available for down to 5.13 for quite some time now.:dunno:

you're not going to see much gain going from 3.73s to 4.10s. what other mods have you done to the truck?

yea i agree i think the money you spend on a posi and gears can be spent better. 373s to 410s wont be that big of a dif. i say LTs and full exhaust will do u better...then add fans and so on

hell, from stock, shorties and a good exhaust will show you a good gain.
