Gear swap? Axle Swap?

Thanks Trigger,

Yes I have the 8.8 and HP30 set-up in my '06 with the 6spd. as well. I have 4.10 gearing with 33s on the street and runs good, plenty of power. Offroad I run 36s on beadlocks and its OK. The 6spd has a lower 1st gear than the older 5 spds. I find I'm in 4LO 1st gear most the time. If I was going to re-gear for the 36s I'd go to 4.88s.

I had my axles up for sale for my 1ton swap but I have had to postpone the swap till next winter due to my back surgury. The axles will be for sale again after Toys for Tots in November.
