For fastest times off the line and over-all performance 4.56s are the only way to go. And for best lock-up of both tires, you're gonna want a good aftermarket LSD.
Best places to purchase would be Air Ram, Moe's Performance, Randy's Ring & Pinion or 4 Wheel Parts.
I paid just under $1500 for rear & front gear sets, master install kit and Auburn Gear LSD and installation about 2 years ago. You are NOT going to want to attempt to install them yourself. To date, this is the only mod done to my truck that I paid someone else to do...
