We ordered the BDS Basic System yesterday, with their "you break it we replace it" warranty just felt it was the nest route to go. Went with the 6 inch kit and no struts/shocks and gonna be staying with the 35's NITTOs I have now. Decided on regearing instead of going with bigger tires. Now hunting around for struts/shocks.

You'll be extremely happy once you re-gear. I just finished my gears last weekend, and was sick with myself that i didn't do it sooner. 4.56 and 35's is the ONLY way to go. The power is back as well as the mpg have improved.

Bigdawg, I'm running stock 3.73s, what gears are you running? Because I was thinking about regearing but was wondering if it was worth it. Would my gas milage improve much? Power? Cause with my lift and tires I'm getting 11-12 mpg

I'm running the factory 3.73s with limited slip and 35s. everybody i have talked to says regearing is very worth it. I just keep getting told different gearing ratios to go with... I have emailed Yukon Gears to get their professional advice on which ratio to go with. as soon as i get their response i'll copy it in this thread.
