ok so maybe you dont have a real H.O they only come in Z71 . and the only diff between a 4x4 and them is skid plates which aint much weight , and diff shocks . do you have any pictures of your truck

I agree with the weight statement. But I did see some non z71 4wd's on the lot where I bought mine with the L33 in them. I too would like to see your truck on 20's. I am debating 20's or 18's after the lift.

Who are you refering to is the question....This is my truck and yes, it has the L33 Aluminum block/heads. Am i missing somthing here?

I guess my 0-60 time is half-way decent for a big-a** heavy piece of steel and 3.42's.

I was given a quote for $1050 + $350 to change out the gearing front&rear and take out the G80 and put in a Posi. Not sure what gearing to go with yet but am leaning towards 3.73 for better low end performance and long distance highway economy. 4.10 seems like a huge jump.

I am in your boat as well. I am planning on running atleast 33's. 3.42's would be even crapier. 4.10's are around the corner.
