Gearing Question!!

We want to know what gearing to run to give us that bottom end power, while still keeping our MPG...


buddy's truck-01 screw, 4" lift, 3" body, 4.6, 35"s tires

my truck-00 f150 ext cab, 6" lift (front), 3" lift (rear), 4.6, 35"s tires


its kinda slow off the line...what gearing would help that??

Use the same gears. Gears depend mostly on tire size and has nothing to do with the lift...
