[QUOTE="TBItoy, post: 740665, member: 1384"] I have the same “issue” with my truck. 05 1500 CCSB, 5.3 w/ 3.42 gears. Gearing the front diff on these trucks is a bit more difficult because you have to do the setup (backlash/pattern check) through the drain plug hole. But the diff will be out of the truck, so it’s not bad. I’d like to have 4.10s (I had an 04 1500 with 4.10s and it was a big difference). on my daily drive on small county highways, it shifts to OD at ~40 mph and feels like it is that spot of barely being able to pull itself. Annoying. I’ll just put it in 3rd if I’m not maintaining 50+mph. For now, I decided to just run in 3rd when towing and stay about 70mph or less. If I do go to 4.10, I’ll most likely try to find a 9.5” semi float 14b rear to swap in [/QUOTE]
