    can't decide, if stay the same or vinyl wrap or what. lol

    same side, when I got my alignment done they were saying there was some play, so I swapped it out with my spare. I still have the other one in my gear.

    Cool dude! I appreciate it. its always an ongoing thing. I took an epic trip in September, my wife and I for two weeks. 3200 miles through the Midwest and it was awesome. The one thing I realized that I really need to address is regearing. Should I go with 4.56? I feel like those would be my best option. But not quite sure.

    Nice! For 33's I felt the 4.56 was good. Now that I'm on 35's, I wish I went 4.88. So if you plan to stay with 33's 4.56 will be fine. But I'm not sure how it is on the newer trucks. My friends 2013 gets worse MPG than I do with less weight.

    a lot of auto guys go with the 4.56s even for the 35s. Most manual guys go with the 4.88. you could do either though. Just remember the higher you go the lower your top speed, unless gas means nothing haha

    I'm auto and on 35's and the 4.56 sucks. But i also weigh 3 tons. So plays a huge role in it too. I don't speed either so if I went 4.88 I wouldn't mind the trade off for higher RPM. It's a touch choice as it's expensive to do. Try to find some local guys that will let you ride with them and see which you like more. You may be lighter so 4.56 may workout.

    Ahhh I see. Yeah I have a 2013. Got okay gas mileage on the trip. I'm not super concerned about the gas, just want more power going up hills and stuff with all the weight in the back.

    Not a Stocko Taco.
    I went 4.88 on 35's. I like it.

    Spoonman had the same setup for awhile until the 37's landed under his truck. He also liked the setup too.

    Now since this is my DD and I don't get to go offroad as much as I'd like too and I don't always have a bunch of weight back there would you say 4.56 would be cool and then it would be sufficient enough when I throw my gear back on for my trips?
