    i like it, i deff would go 4.88s and 33s like some are saying. Im running 3k on the highway at 70 which is perfect in my eyes because im back into the power band of this motor. and i can hit the gas in 5th and my truck actually speeds up instead of just making a louder noise. Depending on what gears you had its going to be a huge difference

    do you have a handshaker or a slush box? (manual or auto) if handshaker go with 4.56, if auto ive heard the 4.88s might be better becuase of the auto gearing, not sure though. but im completely happy with the 4.56s and ill still run the 4.56 when i go up to 35s one day

    im not exactly sure what peoples preference are for gears on an auto. if you live in the mountains and get the wrong gears your gonna be in and out of OD and its gonna be annoying.

    When did you order it? I ordered mine last Sat and haven't heard anything. I know it's like a 2 week lead time but I was thinking you ordered yours around the same time as me

    Mine shipped 2 weeks after I ordered. So yours should ship sometime this week as long as nothing has changed on his part.
