install gears...

 

[gsakeeper06]

those are coming soon prob in the next couple of months hopefully if my dad will bring out the credit card. gears r a little out of my price range right now only being in high school

 

[Ginger]

tell him to get them or your trans is gonna be toast, your putting a lot of strain on the driveline trying to turn those big bitchs. and it wouldnt be the 1st one to toast a trans from it.

 

[gsakeeper06]

Yeah but what right now can I do to get it better

 

[Ginger]

your options are gears or stock tires.

 

[gsakeeper06]

And how much do gear normally cost?? The ones I'll need

 

[Ginger]

for 38's i would suggest 5.13's and for gears installed it depends, normally its around 400 or 600 an axle i think. you could get away with just doing the rear now, just do NOT use 4wd or you will snap the transfercase

I have AWD fml...

 

[DirtyBlackHoe]

post some pictures of your truck...are you sure you have AWD?

 

[gsakeeper06]

I can't from my phone but I have a 2005 lt with options 4 wheel low AWD and traction off

Sucks for you. 38s and stock gears blow donkey ass... Orrrr u could do a dmax swap for $19k Ftl

How old are you? Your sentences suck.

Buy gears, 5.13's and call it a day

Or I can just buy a diesel lol

So, $500 on rear gears or $1k on f&r is too expensive...but a diesel is in the budget?

 

[gsakeeper06]

18 but I'm trying to do all this in class in high school where your not allowed to use your phone

1k for gears or alot more rebuilding your transmission.

This is all.

Save money. Buy gears, don't buy a tuner or anything else, other than a BlackBear Tune once you have the money. Take pics, of said tahoe

 

[gsakeeper06]

Well it would be a new truck might as well get it new than keep
Dumpin money into it and not even get any better mpg than that but I love my Tahoe and really don't wanna sell
