I think I'm going to put some 5.13's in my rig with 33" tires and TH350 ... /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif no I'm not...but it might make up for the lack of torque that the 305 has /forums/images/graemlins/eek.gif
Good to hear you're happy with your choice.

[crazy427]

[85mudblazin]

I am going to be running the 5.13's with my 35's for a while till I get new tires, Its gonna be crazy!!!! /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

 

[jjlaughner]

sweet so 5.13's/700r4 and 38's should be ok /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif

 

[crazy427]

oh yeah, the only way. /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif i might have even gone higher but i dont think they make 10 bolt gears bigger than 5.13 /forums/images/graemlins/screwy.gif

 

[84gmcjimmy]

get a dana 60 and 70, then you can get 5.38 gears /forums/images/graemlins/eek.gif

yeah I think 10 bolts and 14BFF stop at 5.13, maybe one more gear for the 10bolt but then your talking about some tiny teeth on a thin toothed ring gear /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

 

[SUBFAN]

10 bolts do go deeper, but that 14FF is the hold-up there....WHEN R they gonna make a deeper gearset?

 

[crazy427]

right you think it would be the opposite...

10 bolts go to 5.57 /forums/images/graemlins/eek.gif

I believe the reason is that 10 bolts are available in cars and trucks, and in a car application, those gearsets might not be that bad.

i haven't yet experienced the highway drive with mine yet, but i drove it to the trailer with 5.13's and 30'' tall tires /forums/images/graemlins/histerical.gif that we use for when we trailer the k5 and LET ME TELL YOU!!! that think will suck you back in the seat , but the gears in the tranny really stack up!

 

[Bullet]

Yep, thats what I run and they are a great combo /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif
