I mean, this answer depends on a lot of factors- stall speed, tire size, power level, use of the truck, etc etc

best answer would be depending on how your current set up behaves. If you can hook up on the street now, more gear. If not hooking up with the current gear I would look at ways to let your suspension handle the current gear
