Hey man if your running stock gears that is where I'd start. For those tires I would say 4.88's to put the truck back to stock or close to the stock gearing and regain your mileage. Those bigger tires are probably taking a toll on that clutch having to slip it a good bit to get of the line with 3.55's and 37" tires, if it was a auto 46re im sure you would be close to needing a rebuild.

For the clutch take a look at http://www.centerforce.com/ or http://www.southbendclutch.com/dynamax.html.

He wants more ***. He either needs to paint his compensator pink with rainbows, or he needs a cam and to re-gear. I forget what kind of *** he was talking about.

Go on...? Big tires have too many compromises.
