Well, depends on what motor-tranny combo your running and what you do with your truck, Street only- rock climbing-mud, etc.

First find what rpm you want to run in and use this equation to figure what gears to run. Gear ratio=Tire Radius times rpm divided by 168 divided by mph. Don't forget your tranny ratio and for your mph I would recommed your usuall highway cruise say 65-70
