    I have a 99 5.3 ECSB 2wd with 3.42's in it. A buddy of mine gave me a set of 3.73s that he got for his truck before it was totaled, I just dont know if it is worth the time to swap it. Anyone done this and seen any big difference?
    I do pull my camaro with the truck, so I think they may help some, but not sure if it is enough to justify my time.
    Thanks

    The 3.73&#39;s are free and I dont think they will hurt as bad at the pump as 4.10s. Just not sure if it&#39;s worht the swap.

    When pulling the camaro, they will definitely be worth the effort to install. If you&#39;re worried about gas mileage don&#39;t do it, you might on average lose 1/2 MPG.
