I have a 5 star tune waiting for me. I havent flashed it in yet. I havent updated anything on the truck since the gear install so it shifts a bit crazy. But i think it will be in its sweet spot with 4.56 and 35s.
Do you have an update on this Blay? Just wanted to see what your experience is going from 33s to 35s.

Just what i posted in the mpg thread. Still loving the combo of 4.56 and 35's. I think that gear ratio would be too deep for 33's unless you tow a lot and never go much over 60 mph. The 35s fit the truck perfect and just barely rub on the sway bar at full lock, just barely. Overall very happy with the setup. Now looking at bigger fuel tank options....
