    Sometimes I would rather figure out how to make something work than spend alot of money for a bolt on. The difference between R&R (Remove and Rebuild vs Remove and Replace).

    Yes, you will notice a difference between the 3.0 and 3.25. You really have to look at your engine/tranny combination to select your rear ratio. Are you running an overdrive tranny, and if so what is your final drive ratio? Where does your power band come in for your engine? If I were selecting between the two ratios with no other input I would pick the 3.25's but would be looking to go even higher numbers if I had a good OD ratio and tall tires.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
