    Chase is the man. Tell hime what you want and he will ship you the built diff and all you need to do is swap and send yours back. Really limits the amount of time your truck is down for the regear. Plus he really knows what he is doing, and warranties almost anything as long as he built it.

    These guys hooked me up with my gears, highly recommend them they know their stuff and sell only quality gears.
    I went with 4:56's for my 33's

    ...too much shit to list.
    I rubbed with 33's before LT. Just saying.
    35's can fit, but it requires a lot of clearancing.
    IMO 4.56 is the perfect gear ratio on a first gen with 33's. I wouldn't go any taller because the ring gear is so fucking small in these diffs.

    I was curious about gears around the last groupbuy on here. The price he told me was less than the group buy cost :cool:

    X2, and you dont look at clearance at ride height. If you compress your suspension to the bumps with 35's on a first gen (if you even can) you wont be able to turn. You would have to remove most of the core support and/or limit your bump travel

    You guys really can't even change a cv boot on your own and yet you have a long travel truck? Am I missing something?
