If I went this route I would be turning about 3100 rpm where I like to drive on the highway. That sounds like for a loud noisey ride that I'm trying to avoid.

No thanks 35's is plenty for me, I originally wanted 33's!
I originally wanted 33's too, got 35's instead. Now I have 38's and already want 42's. I have only gone about 10 miles on my 38's, and no faster than 40 MPH. Maybe I should get 44's...
Oh, and I second the wanting an auto over the manual. If it was a dedicated trail rig, maybe a 465, but not for a driver.
Always like autos on trucks, and manuals on fun cars.
Sooo trans has to come out? Again?
Afraid so my friend
But you are taking the whole truck to the guy correct?

Ranger overdrive and sm465 ftw...
Umm...NV4500 anyone? Should be lots cheaper and would cause less havoc with the driveshafts. Might even be same length, it's at least close.
Not sure but very possible it was.
Should have bought my NV4500/203/205 setup... Would have been cheaper in the long run.
You know they do make 54s now lol
I used to have a '77 big block 2wd camper special with 4:10s and like 30 inch tires. It spun 3500rpm at roughly 65 mph but always got 10 mpg towing or not. I loved that truck. Shoulda never cut it up. Body was kinda rusty but not bad by eastern US standards.
I only have 1600 into 4 transmissions I have been getting lucky. But I believe this time around is going to cost a lot more.
I wish that I could loan you a truck for BB16!
But my luck hasn't been stellar lately either....
Anyway, kudos for not letting this get you down!
