I searched, didn't really find what I was looking for, and I have also read BrooklynBay's speedo thread stickied in the transmission section. That being said, I still have a question.
I'm going to be going from stock tires and 3.73s to 33s and ultimately 4.56s.
From this link:

It's clear to me that I need to go from a 19 tooth gear to a 20 tooth gear to get it all back to normal once I have both 33s and 4.56s.
However, I'm not sure I'm going to be jumping to 4.56s right away. I have to see how my bank account looks, and if the truck even feels sluggish. It might be something I can deal with for a few months until I get my job back in the fall at college.
So basically, what I'm asking is what would be the optimal speedo gear to get the speedometer and the odometer (both work off the same gear, right?) correct with 33s and 3.73s?
Thanks in advance.
