    Bone stock for now!
    With mine I am off by 12.67% with 3.73s that equates to a 4.20 gear to bring it back to stock with 35s. So 4.56 would be a little lower than what it was with the stock tires. I will go with 4.88 because I see 37's in my future tire purchase with another 2" of lift. And it will haul ass with that much gear. I think 5.29 would be too much of a change. That would be a 42% change from stock and it would be like going to 4.56s with stock tires. Dont forget about another $200 to fix the speedo.

    I am going to go to 4.88s and probably run 34's aka 295s (max.) I need the extra gearing with my 2.7.

    When you order from ECGS, they setup the gears inside the ARB, right? I am not fully committed to doing the ARB yet. I need a second vehicle before I get too deep in to this one. The pricing is right for the gear install though, and that should be perfect for me.

    the 4.56 gears sound about right for me...going to save $$ and pass on the front locker...it'll keep me from trying shit with my truck that i really shouldn't be doing in my truck

    If you over-gear, when off road, I have heard to makes it a lot easier to crawl. So to me, less skinny pedal, means less broken parts. Also you make want to step up to a 4.88, even if you are running 33-34's, because you may want to run a bigger (taller/wider) tire in the future. It all depends on your plans.

    I made a mix drink. 1/3 vodka, 1/3 Amp, 1/3 orange mango. I am feeling good.

    I called Rocky Mtn Driveline and they said 1100each or 2200 total but said 4.56 is not available. I really don't think these guys know what they are doing though.

    I will call Colorado Axle and Gear and let him know that I have interest and we are planning end of summer for getting a group of us down there. Maybe giving him work during a slower time will give us a better discount too.
