    95 chevy k2500 deisel 4x4 hunting truck

    Thanks for the replies guys. So if I went lower gears, id probably go 410s, that should bring me to around stock rpms with 35s right? And for a locker i think I'd go with a Detroit, I like the idea of an air locker, but I'm not sure its needed? A winch is a great idea, how big does it have to...

    So if I can afford to regear I'm thinking 36s(should fit right?) With the 4.56s. That puts me just under 1800rpm at 55 and just over 2200 at 70. I've read the sweet spot is 1800-2200 with my truck for mph.

    Heres how the rpms work Math goes: 70(MPH) x 3.73 (gear ratio) x 336 (given constant) = 87729.6 87729.6/ 35 (tire size) = 2506.56 (this would be the rpm for no OD) 2506.56 x .75 (for 4L80 OD ) = 1880 And it comes out to 2298 @ 70 with 4.56s

    Are Rpms the same for a diesel? Going by that chart I should go 488s for sure

    Also, if I got a Detroit locker for the rear, could I still use it if I went to 4.56s, and do you have to mess with the pinion to put in a Detroit?
