Default Gear question
So I just kinda posted this question in the 33 or 35 thread, but I wanted a new thread just for this question. I am going to be running a 250 hp 4.6. I will have a 6.5 long arm lift and I plan to run 33's or 35's. Considering that power, what gearing would you guys run for those tires? I am a five speed and currently have the 3.07 gears.
Thanks a lot
Brendan

Totally depends on where the engine makes the most efficient power and what your optimal cruise rpm is.
