3.42 gears for TC
Hello, Just looking for some thoughts on pulling hills with 3.42 gears. I'm going back to a pop-up TC @ 1800 lbs dry weight. The trucks I'm looking at are the Chevy and GMC 3500's SRW 4x4...

I know on the Ford side the new 10 speeds made the 7.3 gasser a very viable puller with either 3.73 or 4.30 (better suited for heavy).
I always direct people to this very long thread on gearing on the 7.3: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1665685-numbers-dont-lie-3-73-vs-4-30-explained.html
Lol, that guys an id10t in his explanation. And basically sounds like he lost a bar bet and is trying to talk his way out of it!
Too many people acting like they know what they’re talking about, when they don’t….
No wonder people like the OP who (obviously) don’t know jack about vehicles can get confused so easily….
