This is interesting as I'm running 3:73 on 37's with 8" lift and was considering a gear change myself. I tow a toyhauler weighing in at roughly 12K fully loaded. Although I was looking at 4:30's which would put me very close to stock gearing I've decided to go with a custom tune from Innovative Diesel and leave the 3:73. What kind of mileage are you getting? Running empty, I'm only getting 12.5-13 mpg. Eric at Innovative Diesel believes I can up that 2-3mpg w/ SCT and the custom tunes....

Your transmission is going to hate you. Keep the gears.

Man I have 4.11's in my dually. I hate em. O', thinking about switching to 3.73's. everyone i talk to says they pull just as good. I have 4.89 im my F450 work truck... talk about slow, and my F350 pulls better (guess it cause i have some parts on the 350)

If you don't tow...than I would have 3.73's in my truck. Why run these low gear's if your not towing...but it is less strain on your trany with the oversized tires you have on your truck....

Charile front gears are still in box .i mite make u a good deal.

Im in just the opposite boat as you...I have 3.73's and feel like my truck is a slug because of it...Im probably gonna go to about 4.30's...
