Thanks for your feedback!

Actually, I just did the same.

Yesterday I ordered a set of 4.88's from Summit. Even with the more expensive gear set (4.88's as opposed to 4.56's) it was cheaper to buy them from Summit plus I couldn't get trail duty to answer the phone.

Unfortunately the shipping date isn't for another almost 3 weeks so I too ordered from Trail Duty.

I did however buy the 4.56's because I'm 99% sure I'm doing the diesel conversion and the 4.56's will bring the truck right back to the stock gear ratio with my tires.

I'm saving my diesel conversion for 100,000 miles.

Based on my current mileage, (50K) I'll put the other 50K mileage on in roughly 2-3 years.

Based on fuel savings of 4700 per year, I'll have saved well over 10-12K by doing the conversion now... almost enough to pay for the labor.
