i have a 2010 1500 slt quad cab with the 4.7L engine. Currently I have supercips tuner, K&N CAI, magnaflow 18" muffler. The truck pulls like crazy after 30mph but I think a little better gearing would help with that. Don't want to go extreme but want to get a little more jump off the line. I dont have much experience with gearing but would like a little advice on wht my truck currently has stock and what people have gone with to get that extra jump off the line and where to look for a complete kit.

If you are running bigger than a 32" tire, then I would go with 4.56's. If you have 32" or smaller, then I would go with 4.10's. Either will be a major improvement over the stock 3.55's.

A cheaper and easier solution that would improve your take off would be to swap out your stock torque converter for one with a higher stall speed. This will give you greater torque multiplication and essentially give you the same thing that gears will give you off the line with the benefit of better mileage at cruise speed once the converter clutch is locked.
