    Only 2-3 mph off now. Close enough. True 65 off GPS is 68 on the needle.
    I'll be keeping the 32 tooth in the glove box as a spare in case the gear does separate or disintegrate. There is enough room between the rear seal and shaft bearing to scoop out the parts. Hopefully this will not be an issue.:rolleyes:

    It seems to be working. Just put another 140 miles on it and no problems.

    On an unrelated side note, I drained the Redline MT90 out of my transfer case tonight and replaced it with Lucas 80w-90 straight dino oil.
    I'm not really sure that Redline is thick enough for that kind of duty even though it's the same GL rating. It's like water imo.

    The reason I changed it was I was getting a lot of drivetrain noise. I first thought it was just the Detroit but turns out there is some slop in the transfer case too. Both added together was making me go wtf is that noise?

    It is noticeably quieter now so I'll go with it. I still have the MT90 in the transmission and it did make it shift smoother and I have not noticed any issues as of yet so I'll prolly leave it in there.

    Changed gears from 4.10 to 4.88 :)
    Put the power band back where it needed to be and truck drives like it has stock size tires now.

    Interesting what are your rpm's like around 75 mph. Sorry for the questions just comparing 4.56 and 4.88 in the 5 speed :oops:

    I don't mind the questions :)
    It's 3100-3140 at 75 in 5th gear.
    The mileage numbers you are seeing are at 65mph and below which is what most of our highways are. On the interstate, it feels great, engine sounds fine, smooth.
