Yeah I think the interior will be the last thing I do. Still debating on what kind of seats I want to go with.

Your going to love the gears. If you started with 2.73's the difference will be HUGE. I put 3.73's in my Blazer that had 3.08's and could tell a big difference....

You will think someone jacked your truck up and drove another one under it. The difference in posi and 3.73 gears will be astounding. You'll have a grin on your face for a week. Going from 2.73's to 3.73's is like day and night.

Good luck with everything.
