4:88's to much gear for a 3fe truck on 33's

Any one out there with a 3fe Fj80 running 4:88's and 33's? Thinking about ordering some but not sure if thats to much gear, maybe 4:56's instead.

4:88s will add some pep to your 3FE. I would do 4:88's now, but since I plan on 35's+ soon, I am gonna wait and go 5.29s. Of course your highway speeds will be slightly lower, but you'll feel it around town and excellerating.

Well said! I agree. With 4.88/33's I think you could still roll comfortably at 75mph on the highway. With my 4.88/35's I have to be 80+ to hope of making it up any hill without losing speed.
