You should go 5.29's
I'll agree with that. Didn't you read Nay's thread on what's in and out. pssshh. lol. No but seriously go the 5.29 route
Thought you said the cool kids were running it?
Hey Jeb
I am in the process of installing them in Vernys rig now!
Should be done by this weekend!
Gimme a ring!

4.88's are so 2005.
I will have them installed this weekend on his rig and will be doing a lot of testing with his 315's
I will let ya know!
I'm happy with my 4.88's.
Keep the 305s and run 5.29s!
Seriously, I've been running 305s on 4.88s for the winter and it's great around town, not as much fun on the highway. With my SC, it gets warmer quicker at those higher RPMs even during the Colorado winter.
You're gonna love it!
Don't listen to Nay, he just likes driving really slow (even on pavement).
Hey Romer,
Given that we live in the same area, I'd like to know your experiences and where you wheel/what type of wheeling you do. I'm thinking of an eventual swap on gears, but want to get information from those that are much higher on the knowledge totem pole.

i am very curious to know how much you're paying for the gears front and rear and also who you ordered them through. Ive been thinking abou this mod for quite some time now.
Skillet, how much are you paying for all the parts including installation kit? $650? If it's cheaper where are you getting them?
go 315's you know you want to.
from what I understand your gonna love 4.88's.
I think 5.29's are overkill and also fewer teeth equals less strength.

Sierra Gears. Front and rear with install kits. $794.
This is what I have gathered. Then someone always follows up with this... VVVV

the cool kids...............pffffffft
But then the voice of reason comes out from the woodwork.
Ya' know, it's interesting, most all (if not all) the people saying go to 5.29's went straight to 5.29's and therefore can't compair to 4.88's. If I spent a grand going to 5.29's, I'd sure be defending that choice.
Numericly, 4.56's gets you back to stock rpm with 315's, 4.88's gets you a little higher RPM at cruising, and a little more grunt.
5.29's, no matter what anyone says will rev alot more at 75-80. It's probably more gear than you need.
I'm gonna go to 5.29's in the fall problaby, but that's only cause I also plan on 37's.
Find someone who's driven both - that's the person who's oppinion is best.

All credibility lost using Romer as the basis for the voice of reason
If this doesn't create FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt), I don't know what will
You should always listen to me. Otherwise you will be spending a lot of money to prove I was right.
