Theres a 4.27 i think but i would just do engine upgrades because thats still overkill for 265s.

What would be a good gear ratio for 33's with the possibilty of going to 35's down the road? Daily driver, need to be able to run highway speeds and tow a 4000 lb boat on occasion. Currently have 3.42 and they suck. I only want to regear once.

A 4.10 is good for 33's a 4.56 is good highway gear for 35's.

But a 4.56 on a 33 will be a low gear for 33's, and won't be as good on the highway. I'd go with 4.56's personally

I've been running stock 265's with 4.56 for the past 6 months. Now around town and messing around its nice. But highway youll get your doors blown off, 60-65 at 2400-2500 rpm is it. You can push a little more but once you get to like 2700+ it cuts off. Thats if your warmed up if the motor is cold gotta go like 50-55 till the rpms settle down. Oh and mpg is 11-12 town or highway.

Power wise, it feels like stock, maybe a little more giddy up, but ipi can definitely tell in Parkin lots and the city. It'll light up the 37's on dry pavement like it's nothing.

But on the highway, you definitely feel every gust of wind. Phew.

My speedo is off by 7-9 mph on highway depending on my speed. At 70 it reads 79-80 but at 55 it reads 62.

In the city it's generally off by about 4 moh up to 45ish.
