    Regearing is a great mod and well worth the money, I regeared mine with 4.88's and went from 10 miles to a gallon to 16 and gained extreme amounts of horsepower. I had 3.92 gears and was sloppy and weak with 33's in 4th and 5th gear. Well worth the money :cool:

    i believe theres a group buy going on right now on nitro gears and lockers. Get on it man!!! Gear up to 4.88s and get the power back.

    I went from 4.11 to 4.56 in my 4 banger when I put 33s under it. I'm getting 22 mpg and have a little more bottom end than factory. Definately worth it. If u do a lot of highway driving I think 4.88s might be a bit too low for me.

    It makes a huge difference in power. 4.88s will kill your mileage. 4.56s will probably decrease it on the hwy a small amount.

    If you can find 4.10s easily I'd suggest that but 4.56s probably is what you'll end up with.
