No joke! After my clutches were replaced I'd like to check it every now and then.

True and probably won't change it very often. Just never know when you might swamp the axles and then your cussing trying to change the fluid haha

5.13 sounds like a little much, I'm running General 37s with 4.56s (which I've been happy with and 100% recommend) cause I didnt want to sacrifice too much highway fuel economy and I dont ever want for acceleration. my .02:shrug:

Yeah PA talked me out of the 5.13. I still think I want the 4.88 over the 4.56. I don't do much highway driving due to work is 14.8 miles away on a 40-50 mph road so not that bad. Right now I get 17-19 mpgs if i dont have to stop for lights.

Right now with 4.10s i'm around the 1200 rpm range when driving to work. Plus I plan on getting another DD soon and that will mean the raptor will stay in the garage most of the time. BAHAH doubt it thought :rofl:

We are looking into diff covers for the front and back. The issue of clearance in the front is going to be the kicker. So they are looking for me to see what they can come up with.

Just an update so people know. 5.13 WILL fit in a 2010 raptor front and rear! Brand of gear Yukons. Just FYI so people don't get false info. The way I know... 5.13s in the truck right now.

GO LOW! or go slow.... Wow that's low alright! Can't wait to hear how she does with the 37's. I'm thinking 4.56 because I do a lot of highway driving
