im going to..but not yet, im still on the line between 3:73 and 4:10
4.10's...Don't even give it a second thought..oh and LISTEN to the people that ACTUALLY have gears.. Not all these net wonders.. I've got 3.73's and would get 4.10's if it wasn't for costs.

Edit: get the bearing kit, nothing is better than extra insurance while the end is already apart.
Might want to get the kit with the new shims and everything, especially if you have higher mileage...

that was my argument too ryan. 3.73's are good for the power range compared to the RPM's for our style. Since the newer ones have more power and a little bit better RPM range 4.10's are prob. better for them.

It's actually the transmission gearing that dictates the best gear ALONG with the powerband.

I personally like the 3.73's and don't want to go up to 4.10s. just my 2 cents.

My first install cost me $200, they screwed it up and wouldn't make it right. To have someone reinstall them it cost me around $350ish i believe. Just make sure the person doing it will warranty their work.
