I need more power
Kicking myself for not buying the Hemi but considering the deal I got on my truck, oh well. Ill live. However I do need more towing power and I'm wondering if new gears will give me a boost.
Can anyone educate me here? can I swap the gears out to get more power when towing and if so what do I need? How will new gears affect my gas mileage both when towing and when I'm not towing?

However, 4.10's are not going to get you and a trailer around a convoy of 18 wheelers on a 2 lane blacktop in under 15 seconds. Of course neither will the hemi.

Correct, it takes more like 17 seconds :icon_goofygrin
