Re: re-gearing for 35"s
You dont need to do it...
If you decide to go back to 33" or 32" tires or keep them in your rotation. Tires are easy to change. Gears are not.

Re: re-gearing for 35"s
I don't think I would want to go back to 33"s. I shouldn't need to, especially if with gears I can regain the stock powerband and drivability.
Are you saying I don't need to just for the reason of, if I went back to stock size tires or ?

Re: re-gearing for 35"s
Dont even think about re-gearing to 4.88s with aluminum front diff. Must have CI diff as 4.88s will make explosions easier to come by

Re: re-gearing for 35"s
I don't think I'm going to. I've decided that I'm going to run two sets of wheel/tires. The factory for traveling and some 35" M/T's for daily around town and wheel'n. I'm about to put 10,000 miles on my truck between June and December. So, I don't want to wear out my M/Ts.

Re: re-gearing for 35"s
Sorry man. I'm in Iraq right now. I bought the truck last month while I was on leave(15 days). I haven't even had the chance to buy tires yet. I'm pretty set on getting the Dick Cepek Mud Country tires in a 315/75-R16 matched with the American Racing Mojave wheels in black. You can bet you bottom dollor, that as soon as I get those wheels and tires I'll post plenty of good pics. Till then, I'm just stock piling everything that I've bought at my rents house. My mother is taking great care of my truck.
