Which setup would be best?
#1
Right now I am looking into doing ONE of three mods. Right now I have 4.10's, 35" mtr's, nelson tune, and exhaust. I would like either a cam, 4.56 gears, or a stall in my truck. I realize all would be nice, but I can't exactly afford to do all 3 right now. My question is which should make the biggest difference? I still want the ability to tow my (dad's) boat and am not concerned with 1/4 times but faster is better. A cam sounds good b/c more hp and torque (not starting off, but when pulling hills), plus I love the sound of a loping engine. If I go with a cam, I plan on going with a TR220 112 or TR 224 112 or similar to make it worth while. Then I could go with gears b/c that would put my final ratio close to stock tires again, but then again I could always go a buy a cheap set of wheels and tires for pulling. A stall sounds good b/c I could probably roast my tires whenever I wanted to and they seem like they are fun to drive. What do you all think is the best, I'm open for suggestions.
Thanks,

i agree, 4.10 with 35's is a highway gear. i sure wouldn't have went with 35's only having a mostly stock 6.0 and a 4.10 gear. having the nelson tune will help since he can correct the speedo. any pictures of the big rig? take it off road at all?

Right now I don't have any pics. I don't have a digital camera but I am going to borrow someone's sometime. I take it off road whenever I can, but its not as often as I like. My truck isn't as big as I would like, but it fits the tires which is all I need. The tires do pull awesome and I'm glad I did get the mtr's over other brands. I figured 300hp along with 4.10's (which are fairly low in my opinion) would spin them no problem, and they do off road but not as well as I would like.

i agree on the tire choice, very nice tires. when i used to do alot of off roading a 4.10 gear wasn't thought of as a low gear unless you were running 31's or something. with running them big 35's on that truck you will really like it when you can turn them well. believe me, once you start to get the hp over 400 the 35's will show their abilities, but for now most of their gain is in ground clearance.
let'r rip.
