Really need to know what ratio is in the truck now and what size tires he is running and wants to run to be able to really make a good recommendation.

And 3.31-3.55 would be a great street ratio, especially with the NP435 trans versus a 3 speed.
I agree, its not really worth the effort to only go from a 373 to a 355. you do that cheaper with taller tires.

If your truck is done hauling in its life the 308 is a good leap forward with the added bennies of better gas milage. I would do it to mine except I still work it. but at the time I was considering the change over it was a daily driver and at 70 miles a day the bennifits of mpg made sense. its not cheap unless you find a good rear end in the pic a part.
