I tried 3.08's with my 250 and I really didn't like it- and don't recommend it for 250's especially if you actually work the truck. However, if your 292 isn't tired and worn, it may work ok with the extra cubes and torque. I think it actually might the more I think about it, as long as you aren't working the truck all the time.

I had to use alot more clutch with my 250 and just hope you don't get stuck in traffic on a hill!
