Finally Got My Power Back

Just got back from picking up my truck from the shop that installed my 4.56 gears on my 04 SCAB XLT 4X4 with a 6" PRO COMP lift and 35' PRO COMP MUD TERRAINS. Let me tell you I am extremely happy with the finished product. My truck had the 3.55's on it previously and with the 35's it was such a dog. Now the truck takes off like it used to when it was stock (maybe even a little better). Just wanted to let anyone who was thinking about it that I would highly recommend it. I also purchased a HYPERTECH reprogrammer at the same time to keep the computer up to date with my modifications. The gears plus installation cost me $1000 cash. For anyone interested the truck is now running at 2200 rpm's at 70 MPH. Also wanted to thank everyone that posts info on the site.

I had the gears done at HOOPERS. It is in Sun Valley on Branford. The Hypertech reprogrammer cost me $380, but they run about $399 all over. It took about 40 minutes to install and is very user friendly. I dont know how to get the pictures on to this site. Can anyone give me some quick tips on how to get a picture of my truck to my gallery?
