i know this topic has been beat to death but i want real world opinion or experience, not formula's. i have an 85 3/4 ton 4x4. it has the sm465 and 14 sf rear with 3.42 gears and locker. will have 383 engine later with around 450 ft.lbs. of torque. the current tires are 31". i want to lift the truck 4" and put 33" on it. i cant drive the truck right now (torn down to frame) so i cant see how the gearing would be as is. does anyone run 33" tires with a 4" lift and 3.42 gears. will be daily driver and prob wont see mud. have another truck for that. drive to work is 20 mins one way. dont care about fuel mileage. think torquey engine might compensate for gears. anyone want to comment?
