I'd say go 4.10s, I would like some in my truck, especially with the 285/50/r20 goodyears a little taller than stock. I have 3.73s now

I'm thankful we can re-tune these

When you are ready to do the swap, let me know. I dont know how tall your tires are, but if they are 30" or taller, then dont look back, just do the 4.10's. You will be very happy, especially with a 5400 lb race weight.

Blown, I've been meaning to ask ya about that race weight too. You have the half ton crew cab right? My last time at the track I was in full street trim-minus the tailgate of course 3/4 tank of gas and myself and mine weighed in at 5155 LBs. Are you running 20's?

I wish I had 4.10's but I have to swap twice. And that sucks.

I am running 20's. I tipped the scales @ 5400 with my fat *** in the driver seat and a half tank of gas. I am going to run this truck the way it sits, not even going to mess with slicks.

If you do decide on 4.10's where are you gonna get them? I'm still looking for a Eaton LSD and 4.10's at a good price.
