    Any comments on Regear? Is it worth it? I have bumpers , winch, skid, icon 3 inch lift on 33s icon wheels. Did ov tune and I have no issues with gear shifting so what’s y’all take on this?

    they didn’t offer 5.29’s at the time when I bought my gears.
    I don’t regret it one bit tho

    5.29 gears might be overkill for 33s. You could look at 4.88 gears if you don’t plan on going with a bigger tire.

    I believe it’s a 700rpm difference at 60 mph from what others have reported in the 5.29 mega thread

    Try a tune before regearing. It's a fraction of the price and several members on here did not get a regear after getting a tune. Worst case the tune will work with the regear. I know the KDMax will, I am sure the others will too. You might do a deep dive on TW and find someone who went that route.
