I have searched and searched but couldn't find what I'm looking for. I'm thinking of re-gearing from 3.55 to 4.10 and my question is for those that have done it is what kind of effect did it have on MPG? I'm hoping to gain a little that I lost from the bigger tires.

OK....I've not done this.....but my gut is telling me you will get better mpg in town as your torque multiplication will be better to accelerate up to speed, and worse mpg on the highway as you will be at higher rpm's when cruising.....curious to see if this is effect for those that have done this.....

That's what I'm thinking too.
