<strong>Ok I want to put 32x11.50's on my 94 ext cab with the 22re and 5-speed. It came stock with 4.10's and I currently have 31.10.50's, I can definately feel a power loss with 31's already so when I put 32's on I will want to re-gear it with 4.88's. Are 4.88's and 32's a good combination or should I gear differently? How much would a new gearing kit be? And how much would it cost to have them installed?</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helv, Helvetica, Sans">4.88s will actually give you a slight acceleration increase over stock with 32s and will allow you to go up to 33s in the future, while still maintaining stock power. So, if you're going to pay someone to regear, then 4.88s are definately the way to go. However, you might find a set of front and rear used 3rd members from wrecking yard that are 4.56s and these might be a lot more cost effective. Sometimes you can find 3rd members for about $200 or so apiece. $400 is at least what it's going to cost just to regear one axle with brand new gears. 4.88s can also be found in wrecking yards, but they are very rare. The 4.88s only came in some '92 through '95 V-6 automatic trucks that came with 31" tires.

Good luck.
