    The last set I bought was $49 for each end. I had to pull them myself though. Imagine my delight when I saw that rs sitting at the pick and pull on half price day.

    Yes that would keep you as close to stock as possible. I didn't really notice much difference in acceleration when I had 32.6" tires and stock gearing at CO elevation. Some difference but still very driveable...

    You could always find 4.56 gearing easy and cheap. Then use the saved money for HD torsion bars or lockers.

    Of course I might not be the best example since I still have stock gearing with 35s. 4.77s are too hard to find and my wish list is too long.

    x2, mine are 34s, and I haven't really noticed too much difference. Ofcourse, I was only factory size for like 2 months when I bought the truck.
