Re-Gearing
I am finished with my lift and new tires, 33" pro comp, and now looking to gain back some power and performance. I have had people tell me to re gear at 4.88 4.56 and 4.11 The power gain will be nice but i dont want to run the engine at to high of RPM's since i will do moderate highway driving. Any advice in what to re gear at would be great. Thanks

moderate highway... need more explanation. if you live near mountains you'll not want 4.10's in a stick.
what kind of wheeling do you do? If you are going to be around rocks, you'll want to go as deep as your axles will allow... especially with a stick.
I'm running 4.56's with my 33's...

No .... I sell and install gears. Am a dealer for several companies and can have them drop shipped to you or your installer (if i'm not local to you).
I will install used gears, if requested --- but they carry no real guarantee because the previous history tends to be unknown. Obviously, if they fail 5 miles after you leave my shop .... I would have to work something out. Thankfully, that has yet to happen.
