What About Tq Gains, Are They Good On Tq Because My Suburban Is Very Heavy And I Would Need Some Tq... I Talked To Phase 3 Performace Here In Texas City And They Sugusted I Go With 4.56 Gears On My Rear End... He Said 4.10 Will Put The Truck Back To Where The Stock Tires Were With 3.73 And 4.56 Will Give The Extra Low To Make Up For The Weight... The Only Other Thing Is How Will It Work Fuel Wise For The Highway, I Was Told That With The Bigger Tire I Was Lugging The Enigne Down And I Had Lost Fuel Economy"true" And The Gear Swap Would Free Up My Engine And Put It Back On It Rpm Range... I'm Still Undecided Where To Go With The Asp-kicker Or The Trucker... I Would Like A Blower Or Super Charger For A Later Mod... So Would It Be Go To Go With The Trucker Now...
O THE GEAR SWAP FROM PHASE 3 IS FROM 1,100 TO 1,300.00 DEPANDING ON THE REAR END...

4.56 gears are nice, but may be a much for only running 295/70/17s.... I have 4.56 in my truck with Mickey Thompson MTZs 36x15.5x20s, and that set up is still a little lower than stock engine/trans/gears ratio. Superlift used to have a chart that showed gear ratios/engine rpms/and tire size along with a range showing where stock is.

The Shop That Will Install The Cam And Do The Tuning Told Me To Get 112 Lsa And The Vhp 045 Comes In 115 Lsa Do Not Know If To Get It Ground To A 112 Lsa... Does Any Body Use This Cam On 4x4's.. I Just What To Be Satified With What I Buy...

Thanks For The Replys
1,600 $$$ for a ring and pinion?????? you need to shop accuparts.com they have exactly what you need. As for the gearing the 4.56's were recomended to me for my Z71

I'm sure that quote from Pyle Bros is $1600 installed, correct?

I Had No Luck With The Accuparts.com Search... Please Update...
Does Any One Have Any Tq Level With Small Cams Like The Vph 062 Asp-kicker & 045 Trucker...
Also What Causes The Rear Calippers To Lock Up When You Touch The Brake & I Takes A Good Force To Get It Moving... I Changed The Left Rear And Did Not Check The Right Rear Calipper Because I That I Found The Problem And It Still Locks Up... I Guess I Will Have To Take A Look At The Right Side Too...
