Randy's was 20$ more with USA standard gears front/Yukon rear, Truetrac front and rear, setup bearings and install kits with Toyo bearings so that's why I went with Complete Off Road.
The guy at Complete Off Road told me that their brand of gears are Yukon and that they get their stuff from Randys, learn something new every day.

Come on 14mpg, I can't wait.
What size tires are you running?

Since they're re-treads that 285 70 17 measures 33" instead of 32.8".
Most of my Dodge time is spent at 60 and 70mph so that's why I went for 4.11 instead of 4.56.

I thought 4.56 gears would put you at 2500 rpm at 70 with 33" tires. Well I was wrong. Meh, I already have them ordered so I'll just be happy with what I got.

Nah, the 4.11s should be better for mileage anyway.

I looked over the receipt last night and noticed that the Truetrac for the D44 was for a rear D44. I'm glad I caught that one, I called this morning and got them to fix it before they shipped them out.
