Hello,

Looking to buy a 7.3 6speed

What rear end would be the best for MPG's ?

I drive 50% city 50% highway with trailer on highway.

Thanks,
Robert

PS: will add tuner & larger exhaust

 

do you do much towing?

unfortunaly to change gears out on the trucks you will be spedning a pretty penny, unless you can do it yourself and not go crazy before you shim it all correctly.

i wanted to get mine done when i had my lift and it was about 1700 bucks including the gears that i was going to buy myself.

 

i think he was inquiring it the stock gears i think it is 3.73 is good for mpg not as good or pulling but if it is not hilly then it might work the gurus will chime in soon.

 

i got a 3,73 and six speed 2wd i pull trls all the time. but i would like to have a gearvender for a double overdrive

 

sorry just woke up and miss read it....yea prob 3.73's

 

Correct, looking at stock gears. Getting close to buying a 99 with 4:10 limited slip.

Have an automatic 6.0 with 3.73 now. Not sure how the 6speed with 4:10 would do. I'm assuming better city & worst at 70 + mph. I guess better thru mountains on highway pulling big load.
