Hey guys, in terms of mileage, would it be worthwhile to go from my 3.42s to 3.73s or 4.11s with my 31"s? She's a torqu monster in first and second gear, 3rd she's a slug, and I rarely see 4th.
Depends on city or highway. If you drive over 50-55 mph on a regular basis, definitely not.
My 4.10s kill me on the highway. Honestly I don't think my highway mileage is any better than start/stop city driving (not that I'm in that situation often, but sometimes).
I know your truck is different in many ways, but lower gears mean more revs at speed.
