It feels great, a big improvement over the stock gears by far my favorite thing I've thrown my money at so far.

Rusty's is where I got my gears from and they were the cheapest I found and sell everything in one nice package, all you have to do is pick which axles you have.

Also, here is a pic of my rpms at 65mph (yes speedo has been corrected) I have 33's and 4.56s

There is a certain range you want your engine at at different speeds, the lower the rpm's doesn't always mean the better, especially if your dumping tons of fuel to it and not going anywhere.

What speeds are those rpms at? Based on my experience those don't look right.

You might find the axles with the gears you want in a junkyard near you with this.
