Regearing 2wd

i have a 07 dcsb sport, have lift, 33's, armor and picking up a bed rack. planning on getting a harrop e locker, moving from the mall and getting rid of my lsd for more offroad /trail riding. if i have it apart, i was thinking about regearing...what should i get? thanks in advance for any help.

 

4cyl or v6? If 4 cyl...5.29's all day.

 

v6

 

With 33s and v6. Id go 4.88's especially since your not turning front running gear.

 

thx homie

 

What do you plan on using your truck for? 4.30s would bring you back to feeling like you're on stock tires. If you plan on putting on 35s 4.88s would be best.

 

more overlanding n trails, more off-roading

 

488s and a winch.

 

Offroading a 2wd? Seems like the best mod is 4wd... Not trying to be offensive but I wonder if it's worth sinking all this into it when off roading is the goal.

 

no offense at all, I already dumped a bunch of money to make it look like I want. I don’t owe any money on her and honestly, I’m to lazy to build up another.

 

I think you’re making a generalization that anything off-road is comparable to rock crawling, when it likely represents an extremely small percentage of conditions. Clearance, tires, knowledge and the future addition of a locker makes a capable rig to enjoy.

 

I wasn't trying to dismiss them on a generalization, hence why I said "wonder". I personally have been obsessed with ideas that didn't really make sense in the end and wish I got a differing opinion. OP has since clarified that they've considered it but have their own reasons for sticking with 2wd which is great and all the power to them. Just warning that a locker probably won't make it as capable as a basic 4wd.

 

Auto or manual? 4.56 if auto...
