The tires are 33" which isn't that much difference than stock 32" tires. It does add up I am sure. I looked online and found some 20' enclosed trailers and a few V nose trailers too. Just have to wait and see what the money situation turns out to be in the near future. Roy I had guessed it would drop to around 12mpg, I hope it doesn't drop into the single digits but will have to live with it, IF I go this route. The Wild Kids |

It would not be too bad to change out the R&P gears in the differentals, you can probably have them changed to lower gears for around $800 for both sets yourself, if not about $1200 to have a 4x4 shop to install them. |

I had thought about changing them out but was told that it should be done by a mechanic that has the right tools and dial indicators. I looked but have forgotten how much the R&P sets were. would like to have a 4.10 or similar gearing. The Wild Kids |

Switching to some 3.73 gears would put you back to the stock setting you started with before you went to the larger tires. |

The Wild Kids[/quote] I agree with you, it is very important to check your backlash by using a dial indicator and by having the proper tools to do the job. |

[quote='Roy']Switching to some 3.73 gears would put you back to the stock setting you started with before you went to the larger tires.[/quote] If you change them to 4.10 gears with 33's on them it will more likely raise your ratio just a little, but still will have lower gears than 3.55 ratio to begin with. I use to have a 2000 Chevy Silveraldo 1500 Z71, it came special ordered with 4.10 gears, and I put a lift and 35" tires on it, and it still pulls pretty good, I probably p |

Here is a picture of my truck with the new tires on it. They are Nitto Mud Grapplers 33x12.50x17LT. Other than sounding loud roaring down the road I like them, just crank up the stereo a little bit louder. I have been looking online and think that a 20'er would do me for what I want and not be to much on the truck. The Wild Kids |
