i would deffinatly not get the programmer or the maf. both would be a waste of money. gets a real tune but before anything like it was said over and over get gears. i would say 4.56's. remember if its 4wd you have to do both font and back gears.

re-gear the truck for those 35s.

I went from 2.73's to 4.56's for my 35's on the K-5, very nice!!!

He might need to go more than 4.56's, my truck came stock with 4.10's and if I ever lift it i'm starting with at least 4.88's. Every truck needs a tune!!!

My buddy put some 456's in his truck with 36's on an 86' rcsb 4x4 and he loves them, decent on the high way even with a big block.

Long story short, he ended up getting with 37" tires, 6" suspension lift, 3" body lift, powered by a 4.8L w/3.23 gears on a 1500 and he's curious why a mom with stroller can beat him off the line. He still shoots his mouth off how he has a K&N drop in filter and exhaust, but doesn't know why he lost so much power and MPG

i got wheels and tires, he got wheels and tires... i put on an exhuast, he got an exhaust, i put on Radix supercharger and he cannot afford.... great sucess.

i just watched borat not to long ago and i couldnt resist.

hahaha. nice one.

I'm not goin to sound like a broken record about the gears, but a tune is well worth it. A cam would be sweet in that truck, but it's got the AFM right? I know I've seen a few cams for the new AFM trucks, but I'm not real familiar with them yet.
