I am considering a '06 Z71 that has a 4.10 rear end. Anyone have experience on what it will do to the ride and MPG versus the 3.42 read end?
Not much diff. in mpg around town. Maybe around 2 less on highway w/4.10's.irish31790 said:I am considering a '06 Z71 that has a 4.10 rear end. Anyone have experience on what it will do to the ride and MPG versus the 3.42 read end?
No video but another member and I raced our Z71s at a 1/4 mile track, his truck with 4.10s was 1/2 second quicker than mine with 3.73s.butterfingarz said:I am currious to see a comparison article of all the different gear rations on the ave. I have an 02 Z71 with almost 140,000 on her now with the 3.73 gear ratio. Im also currious to see some video or something someone should do to show how much faster the 4.10's are off the line and in the long run. Maybe this is why in car and driver they say aves are like .4 seconds quicker to 60 than tundras and i lost to my buddy because car and driver never stated what gear ratio they used(assuming 4.10's). O ya and maybe a dyno run comparison of MPG between the two. Im getting 14mpg with about 65% highway. Mines rated at 13/17. How are you guys getting upwards of 20 im jealous! and i live in california
