Hey whats up? I have a 2001 ford f250 super duty i recently bought. It came with a lift kit(6 inch) and 38x16.5 in. super swampers. Ive been told that I should put a bigger gear in it to make up the difference with the big tires. my question though is what gear to get. Stock gear i believe is 3.73. Can someone help me out here??
Oh yea and its a daily driver....
