Ok so bought a 2wd short bed reg cab as a project truck thinking about 2in drop in front and 5in drop in rear and running 22" srt wheels and sway bar in the rear,but here is the problem it has 3.55 rear end with factory limited slip(junk from what i am reading) and i want to change gears and add adetriot or auburnLSD but stuck on whether 4.11s or 4.56 anyone done this swap? my RPMs are realy low on freeway so not to concerned about that and i know i will get worse mileage but i didnt buy it for mileage

As for speed i like the new 310HP4.7 suprisingly quick for a light pick up, maybee supercharger that would make things interesting

I wont be doing much towing with it ,got my other rig for that .Ijust want the gears for performance but it is not cheap so want to get it right the first time.

 

I have the 4.56, greatest mod I have done yet. I also have the 4.7. This mod will wake that truck up, along with a tuner and some cams and you have got your self a pretty sweet set up in a truck.

 

What type of cam are you running ? no tuners out for this new 4.7 yet ,SCT said maybee this summer. gonna do my own custom exhaust (got a full mufler shop at my disposal) didnt get the hemi had one before and was faster than my old 4.7. But not much more than this new motor and i dont need the stalling, sputtering ecm that cant make up its mind[:@] , And like i said truck is light and 2wd so should be plenty of fun.personaly i think this new 4.7 might have some people gettin it instead of hemi, Atleast i hope so and then maybee we will see some more aftermarket parts

Cam would be cool to do how much it run you for cam?

 

I'm not running cams, I wish I was. I would run 212 if I had a choice.

 

Ill still take my hemi, but a friend jsut bought the 4.7, and the new one is a nice strong motor. He put magnaflow on it, not sure about the in, but a dual out adn it sounds great.

Hopefully you guys will get some performance mods soon.

 

oefootball, what kind of mileage to you get on highway with 4.56s?

 

13 or 14 i think, its not exact because my speedo is off from by bigger tires. So dont quote me on that. My City is 10 mpg with them. and the tires. If I had norm tires I would almost bet that my mpg would be up. From what it used to be around 12.4

 

here are some srt-10 wheels

Cool ive ben lookin and found some new ones smoked gunmetal grey color for $800 on ebay.I think gray ones would look cool with the black truck.

 

Yeah, deff. As far as drop, I think the kits are mostly 2/4 drop. I know hemiyellow has one. you can just look around and do a couple searches and find some stuff about lowering. As far as modding out a 4.7 engine, I don't think anyone is better at it than airram. You should check out his website or give him a call. He knows these motors inside and out.
