Torque Shift 2nd overdrive

I have recently bought a 05' 4x4 F550 w/4.88 rears and I am looking to see if there is a 2nd overdrive or 2 speed upgrades to bring the revs down on the interstates. Any info or help would be great.

Make sure and check with your dealer before installing. Many after market parts will void your warranty. There was a Ford Special Service message on this.

I know that many after market dealers say that it wont void your factory warranty, but remember that they dont work for Ford and CANNOT speak for Ford.

why not swap to 4:30s? that is a factory available ratio in the 450, it would be like 4:10s in a pickup.

[edit] nevermind, I see the 4x4 part...

good luck, I hear good things about gear vendor stuff.
