all ideas welcome

Hey i have a 94 v6 ex cab 4x4 I installed a 4 inch IFS kit and 33s shortly after buying the truck. The 33s killed what little power my truck had so with my tax return i figured 4.88s and a rear locker would make things better. I am currently half way through getting the front axle out of the truck and I plan on installing new cv shafts, some seals, and replacing the broken idler arm. If any of you have any advice or tips I would love to hear from you.
Thanks
Andy

Um well 4.88's will supposedly bring the gear ratio closest to stock with what tires you are running?

Do you plan on running bigger tires later?? if so now would be the time to gear lower so you don't have to do it twice. The rear locker makes such a big difference off road..

I don't really have any tips for you though.
