First of all I have a '91 2wd extra cab 22re 5 speed with a 2" downey upper control arms 26mm torsion bars and 2" lift leafs

I went and got new wheels and tires last week and I may have gone to far with 30x9.50x15 because my truck is lagging more than before(obviously right?)

Well I've got a few hundred bucks to spend and I'm wondering if I should spend it on exhaust(all new from the manifold back) to help it breath a little better or if I should do something with the rear end. I've been considering an LSD but I don't know if I need to put lower gears in the rear or if that is built into the new LSD.

I'm basically asking what my next move should be for both street and offroad performance. I'm not trying to build a pre-runner or anything like that, I just like to wheel around in the mud and all the trails around my town. Thanks for any and all the info you guys can give me.

 

Gears. That's the one thing that'll return your power.

 

Yeah the 22re is one of the finest engines ever made, but, lacks a little in power!

Try re-gearing to really get your power back.

 

What would be your suggestions on which gears. 411's or lower. Also if I did re-gear it would the new gears be compatible with an LSD or does the LSD take the place of the gears.
