Help On New Silverado..Gear Ratio
#1
I went in the dealer today and sat down and told them exactly what I wanted. Well an hour later they called back and found me exactly what I wanted. Everything was good till he told me that he thought that when he found it I might would be concerned about the gear in it. Its got I think a 3.42 gear in it. I do haul my bike around in a trailer from time to time and do haul a trailer but nothing heavy. The only heavy, heavy hauling i might do is I might haul my 02 camaro to Tennessee, 8 hours away. I was just wondering if in the long run, if I should have gone with 3.73. What should I do? Thanks

Can you give us the details on the truck??
I have 3.42s in my truck but only a 29" tire... i tow a good bit.. but the 6L and turbo help out with that..
When it was stock i towed 12k lbs a few times... big ditch witch... but never towed anything that heavy for along time..
Just give us the rest of the specs....

if your planning on towing in 4th at least do a good 4th servo... i have the sonnax superhold billet from FLT and i would never look back --->

the etra gear would give you a little more grunt... but you should be ok towing with the 3.42 the load will just feel like its a lil harder to pull

I have the Superior Super Servo kit and i love it..
Cheap way out would be the Corvette servo and the Sonnax Super hold..
