    Could you tell me more about the gears, just know they make your truck lighter or something like that, but really don't know witch gear to buy or what ratio. Witch would be better for my truck with 34s?

    First off they dont make your truck lighter. Changing your gear ratio basically puts more power/torque to the tires which is needed since they are bigger. (laymans terms :D)

    I would go 4.56's if you are gonna run 34's, I ran them with my 35's and am now running them with my 37's (wish I had 4.88s).

    4.88 are better than 4.56? Just want my truck to accelerate the same or faster than when I had stock tires and rims.

    Then go back to stock wheels and save yourself a bunch of money on tires gears and gas.

    When the rest of TW starting posting in it.... A whole lot of non-LT guys posting in LT threads lately. Hell first 4 responses to my Fuel Cell thread were from stock or almost stock trucks.

    But yeah, I just said the same thing out loud when i was reading.

    I asked that like ten pages ago and got my ass jumped by everyone saying they don't mind and want to help.

    Learn like the rest of us did. Read, read, and read some more. Search and search til you fall asleep.

    You learn from books your whole life, yet you can't ask a book a question :rolleyes: (and nowadays a teacher won't know the answer)
