Thanks! This is my truck. Kings set to 2.5" all around, maybe a little less in the front. 2.5" OME Dakar leafs in the rear. The front sits even lower cause all the weight from the armor.

Almost 32's. No regear, yet. Currently I'm in Texas, but I spend most of the year in Colorado, at altitude.

265/75. Negligible just cruising around town or on the highway. Noticeable when climbing a hill.

okay, so the same size Vicarious just put on his (duratracs) without a lift. I don't think he'll have any problems, he's usually traveling with me and even with my re-gear im not speed deamon over the mountain passes.

I put these tires on when I was still on the stock suspension setup. What gear ratio did you end up going with?

4.56. It was the happy medium of more power but still drivable at 80. If this wasn't my DD I might have gone for 4.88 but on this white rim trip I was over GVWR by 300 lbs, had a yakima box on the roof and could still maintain freeway speeds over all the passes on Highway 6 (maxing out a little over 8000) so it seemed like a good choice.

I'm stuck between the same ratios when I decide to go up a size. 35's and a 2+ LT kit are in the back of my mind too so I'm leaning to 4.88s. I hear great things about both which makes it difficult.

stock ratios are 3.83 for the TACO right? a jump to 4.56 would be pretty big, my stock ratios were 4.10, so it was only a 2 step, 4.56 would be a 3 step for you.

3.73 if I remember right. It's a big jump, for sure.
