Hey guys,
I have a 2WD 14' Ram with 5.7 gas automatic on 3.55 stock gear ratio. I tow about 3-5 times a month (7x14 enclosed tandem axle trailer) On average I'm towing 3-5 times a month for events/shows and I've got about 4500-5K in tow on a plethora of different roads and hills throughout California.
I'm seriously considering upgrading to a 3.90 gear ratio
I know some of the pros and cons of changing gears, but aside from a little bit less MPG is there anything out of the oridinary on performing this myself that I should be aware of when I crack open and separate those axles?
Thanks.
