Go with 4.88s for a manual, and 5.29s for an auto, there is a door jam # that will tell you your stock ratio, if not there is.............the test.

I have 4.56's on 33x12.5's and think they are perfect. Honestly I think alot of people overgear here. I plan to keep the 4.56's with 36's and change them out to 4.88's if its too sluggish. I don't blame people for overgearing though stock 22re's and 3.0's are really lacking in power but I dont need my daily driver to be a screamer...

with my truck 4.10s and stock 28s, i could roll 90 down the freeway, with extra power, and climb hills in 5th downshifting to 4th on occasion. And 5.29s will put me close to that with the 35s, if im correct it will actually be a little too low but i figure with the weight increase in the tires/rims it will be damn close.

depends, you figure its about 500 just for the gears and install kits, and if you drop your diffs and take it to a shop its like 100-300 per diff, if you take in your whole truck its like 1000-2000 depending on who does it. i have a buddy that does gear install with lockers for 100.

It's reccomended you do 4.88's for 33's . I'm going to run 5.29's and 33's this summer.

I have a Richmond Gear 4.88 Ring n Pinion 7.5 (IFS front) set for $85 shipped.

You're gonna pay around $200 any ring n pinion set. TG has 8" sets for around $130 IIRC. Marlin has Yukon 7.5's for around $185 iirc..
