im almost positive you can get 3.73s with the 6.2, if not its easy to swap gears, and as far as the centerconsole, ill trade you my jumpseat + cash for your center console

yeah it looks like if you order the max trailering pack on the SLT (LTZ) crew cab it comes with the 6.2L and 3.73 gears.
I would probably save some money and just get the 6.0 though. You have to remember that the 6 speed tranny has a 4.0 first gear which is why it usually comes with 3.42 gears.

I've checked the actual order guide and you can not get 3.73s w/ the 6.2 yet, I'm thinking that the 6.0 w/ a tune will be pretty close to the 6.2 when you figure in how under geared the 6.2 will be with 33" tires.

get the 6.0 it is a strong motor and 3.73's are a must! Plus it has been out longer than the 6.2 so i am sure there is more performance parts and add ons for it. let me know how the 33's fit and what you do to fit them cuz i am due for some knew tires pretty soon and i would like to squeeze some 33's under my ride.

6.0 and 6.2 use the same heads and intake, I believe that the 6.2 is just a punched out version of the 6.0 w/o active fuel mgt.

I'll be doing the truxxx kit with a rear leaf spring instead of blocks (blocks cause too much axle warp). I'll have the local spring shop slid in a extra leaf or two (maybe enough to take the standard block out too.
