    I think my issue I'm running too light of an oil you also could try stuffing foam behind the seats. There's a TSB about how to do it, but take the rear seats out and foam up back there.

    Got my truck back from the shop. 5.29s in my 2016 mt. With 285/75/16s, my speedo is almost bang on.
    Interstate driving should be interesting lol. But it drives great! No howl.
    Went with revolution gears

    That's 6th gear?
    I have 4.88's I'd be doing over 80 at those RPMs.

    Yessir. That's in 6th. I'll do another run today to double check.
    The gears are a little shorter than I had hoped. But, I weighed in at about 6300lbs loaded, so I needed the torque
    Going 80 isn't a priority when I'm this heavy

    The gears have no effect on the speedo because the speed is measured at the wheel speed sensors. So you speedo will be the exact same off as it was before the gears

    100% true. The speed is calculated at the ABS sensors. Tire size is the only thing that will make you speedo off.

    Interesting. I feel like it's been a little closer than it was before. Maybe just making things up :D

    Because he stated his tire size and gear ratio, So what you stated is irrelevant because he has a larger tire. Geez dude you get it now? And Joecova is just an idiot!

    The higher MPH the more you'll notice. Yours should be about 5mph at 65mpg higher

    And as I clearly stated. Gears will have absolutely nothing to do with how far your speedo is off. Gearing is irrelevant to what he was trying to say and I was pointing that out.
