I OWN A 1995 CHEVY C-1500 FLEETSIDE P/U TRUCK . I WANTED MORE LOW END & PERFORMANCE SO I WENT FROM 3.42 GEARS TO 4.10 (WOW) WHAT A DIFFERANCE.I HIGHLY RECOMMAND THESE GEARS TO ANY ONE WHO HAS A OVERDRIVE TRANS AND AT LEAST 28" TALL TIRES. THE FINAL RATIO OF MY TRANS ON MY TRUCK IS .70 WHICH PUTS MY RPM'S AT 70 MPH @ 2400 - VERY ACCEPTABLE .MY TRANS IS A 4L60E.THE DIFFERANCE IS 20% MORE WHEEL TOURQE.BURNS A MEAN 2nd GEAR EVERY TIME. I LOVE EM. BY THE WAY YOU DO NEED TO CHANGE THE CARRIER. NOTE:DO NOT CHANGE GEARS IF YOU ARE NOT GOING AT LEAST 20%.GAS MILEAGE DID NOT SUFFER MUCH AT ALL.
