Anyone running 5.29 gears in their pickups? I'm wanting to run them in mine with 35's but I've been told that the gears will be weak. Any info on someone having problems with them?

Whomever you have spoken with has likely confused the 5.29 gear set with the 5.71's, almost everyone runs 5.29's for 35's or bigger tires.
'90 black X-cab mod'd 3.0, 33's/4.88's, rear ARB, custom bumpers, sliders, safari rack, etc.
'91 Blue X-cab 22re, 35's/5.29's,Truetrac front, ARB rear, dual cases, and custom Safari flatbed, bumper, interior.

I have 4.88's on 35's and the speedo it right on and drives awesome.
If you see it, its for sale.

Nocents

4.88 are great with 35's
