Can you change the gear ratio on a truck?
You can change the axle ratio, and you can do it rather easily. Quite a few members here have gone from one ratio to the next. People with 3.21 and 3.55s are going up to 3.92 and even sometimes 4.10. A lot of the 4×4 trucks you see here with lifts and larger tires have gone with 4.10 or 4.56.
