    Yes you could just put the gears in. I think. But you need the LS carrier or something. Don't know much but I'm trying to help. In the past, it's usually cheaper to buy an axle and bolt it right in than a gear swap

    Theres a limit to that lol, thats why you see off-road beasts with 4.30's yet muscle cars stay around or lower than 3.73 for the most part. Higher gears are good for torque.

    I'm wanting a good ratio that will give my truck a little more acceleration and top end. Since it's 2wd I wanna go for a sort of sleeper. Would the 3.31 suffice for that? I was watching a video on YouTube about gear swaps to see how involved it was. This was a 2005 f150. At the end they used a programmer of some sort to recalibrate the speedometer. Is there a way to recalibrate speedometer on a 1995 f150? If I do the gear swap I at least wanna know how fast I'm going.... Don't want any speeding tickets. Lol.
