Your times aren't terrible for a 3.42 geared truck. 3.73 gear would be a big gain in your 1/8 mile time and even bigger gain in the quarter mile. More gear would be probably one of the best mods you could do. How tall of a tire are you running? (stock 265's?)

when my g80 locks i have no problem with traction in 2wd anywhere other than the track i was at when these times were ran. i agree that more gear would really help my truck havent decided on 3.73 or 4.11 but gears and eaton will be the next mods i do. im still running the stock 265 goodyear wrangler st until they need replaced
