as you can see in my sig my truck is not stock but i wanna run 35's on it for a little better highway speed not sure if i wanna go with 354's or 373's i just dont wanna loose to much power low end i was thinking 373's with 35's would work well what do yall think????

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

and if any of you do have the 373's or 354's what are you running rpm wise at around 70 i also have a nv5600 and how do they tow?

 

If you wanting to get the best of both then you'll want the 3.73 most likely. Gives you some low end response but keeps the highway speed up.

Just remember for every 4 pounds more of tire you place on the truck your going to require 1 HP more to keep rolling. Just to give you a feel I've got both 265's and 235's. The 265's weight 85 pounds a piece and the 235's weight 62 pounds a piece the 235's gain me 3 MPG over the 265's. So keep than in mind.

 

hmmm thanks im really leaning twords the 373's i love my low end ***** but i blow the tires of it if i punch it in second third and fourth really with the 4:10's 5 and 6th i can bang pretty good but its to much low end and i have 295's right now hmmm i wanna know what its gonna tow like cuz it tows like a god damn bear i dont really wanna loose to much ya know i want the best of both as you said.....

 

Well if you do decide to switch gears let me know... I may be in the market for some 4.10s

 

def. tows like a bear. i havent towed anything over 11k but i have never had to downshift out of 6th gear no matter how steep the hill. it just climbs. but also sucks on the expressway

 

i will def let you know shellinger about the 4:10's im gonna go with the 373's ill pm you when i do

 

Let put it this way...



Hitched up to this beast with either 265/75 R16 tires or 235/85 R16 tires I can out right smoke the tires in 2nd and bark 3rd gear with 3.55 gearing.

 

I hate my 4:10's with 33's. 2grand at 60mph is really annoying!! I'd love to have 3.55's

 

No. You can't have mine...

Nice to see you again...

 

My buddy is really wanting to pull this year and he has 3:55's. Im gonna try to convince him that it will be better if he just trades me haha
