With the amount of wheelspin that I had last night, I'm considering trying a P.G. trans. to calm some of the spinning and also to be able to spray the motor hard out of the hole. Do any of you guys run a 'glide, and if so, did you notice much of a difference from running a 3-spd.? I know most people will say that a 3-spd. would be a better choice in something this heavy, and I guess I could take some gear out of the rear. I have a set of 4.10s in the shop that I could try.
This is a cool thread, BTW...

I run a glide with a 4.30 gear! My truck has been real fast with the previous owner! I'll get there one day! best so far of a 6.05!
