I put a gear venders in a 2000 powerstroke dually that had 4:10's. Lowered the rpms by 3-400 but saw no real mileage gains, but it was a lot nicer on the ears at the lower rpm. The best mpg was around 17 and I had a mild chip, 4" exhaust and K&N filter. Also had to have the driveline done twice since the first guy did a terrible job of shortening and balancing it. Save your money, I would not do it again.
