2012 GMC Sierra 3.42 to 4.10 Gearing Swap
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Finally got the new gearing installed and the results are quite impressive. The truck has the Flex Fuel 5.3L. It definitely has more get up and go plus I'm still getting around 14.7 MPG which is what it was at before.

Dirty Martino not positive. I just had all them done with new calipers and lines, but it used to lay rubber before I had to replace the engine. After that it won’t break traction unless the road has a wet spot.
This is a handicap equipped truck, there is ALOT of extra weight that goes into it with the lift and structural reinforment. 410s looked like it helped alot.

I went from 3.23 to 3.73 on my 05. It’s a 4 speed auto too. I couldve went 410 since the different between 3.73 and 4.10 us only 200 rpm but I’m happy with 3.73. I just talked my buddy with your same truck to gear swap to 4.10. He Tows a 26’ toy hauler with 3.42 gears and he said it struggles.
Hey man Nice win! If your main concern is burnouts though look into a line locker it will save your rear breaks. It hooks up to your breaks so when you press them then hit the switch and release it will hold just the front ones!

In 2003 all Ls engines come with drive by wire, when you stomp the gas pedal to the floor the computer will not open the throttle wide open immediately. The idea is safety, it will prevent you from loosing traction on slick or wet surfaces. It works like the ABS system only in reverse so you can not lock up the brakes and loose traction when stopping.
Smoked a hell of a lot more than I expected at the competition... hats off to you.
so pulling the plug on the solenoid of the transfer case alone is good enough to run with different gears on the rear? would you recommend removing the front axle as well or should it be ok just like that?
Did you recorded your RPMs at highway speed before & after re-gearing the axle?
You can also change gear ratio for a burnout competition with smaller tires, since I see you bought wheels and tires just for the occasion.
i could of made that truck burnout with no tune, gears, etc, just by removing the rear brake drums, and turning off traction control & stabability control.
Anyone have any tips? I’ve had trucks prior that I could roast the tires off, but when I got my 13 Sierra 5.3, I can’t get them to squeal at all let alone roast them. Note: Running 33, 12.5 wides
Is the low end take off any more noticeable? How about the top end crusing?
torque management needs to be set at 0% and it will help out power also

To everyone saying I gave up 4WD for good: I had the front regeared too so now 4WD works again. I could only afford to do the rear during the time of the video. The shop recommend that I don't do both at the same time anyway in case I didn't like it. Thought I'd comment this too since apparently the annotation isn't visible to some users.

Ok so I have an 05 Tahoe 5.3, my truck has a problem either the same or similar to this, so when I try to burnout i have too like press half gas and if I gun the throttle is Boggs down a lot and doesn't have any power or torque, same for when I gun it for a race or whatever i have to keep the peddle at half until like 25 mph or it will bogg down and be really slow. People are telling me it's the torque converter. Any ideas?
@mncarguy
6 жыл бұрын
There's a few things. It could be the low stall of the stock torque converter, your rear brakes could be too strong or your truck just doesn't have enough power. Your best bet would be finding someone with an HP tuner and have the torque management dialed back or completely disabled. Hope that helps. Let me know if you figure anything out. I had a cammed 6.2L swapped in last year along with a 3000 stall converter. It has so much power that the tires will spin even with traction control on. I'll be doing a supercharger next and it's gonna be fast as hell lol
should I install a line lock for the front brakes left the gears the same
Mine 2010 would do a burnout with a 3.08 and 35’s 🤷🏼♂️ even before my cam swap
Haha bro you do one burnout Struggling to even break traction, and next shot you are entering a burnout comp??!!
Are both tires spinning?couldnt tell seems like a electronic issue holding truck back from full power driveline somewhere gonna kill trans doing this kind of shit..
Im trying to get my 08 to brake stand, so i would need to change the gear ratio thats it? Help a bro out lol.

Either you're letting off and getting back on the throttle during the burnout and also at the beginning I noticed it slowly increased rpms ? Are you slowly giving it gas ? If not you might need a major tune up or something because these trucks stock are tire burners lol
Hell yeah the burnout contest at moonshine bar and grill is always an awesome time! I’ve gone every year that they have had it

He is clearly hitting the brakes too hard. I've been on a lot of trucks and a lot of guys trying to do burnouts and let me tell you the Ls 5.3 has got plenty of power to burn them with any ratio in the back that came from factory. But if you pin the brake pedal to the carpet it's going to more difficult to get them going on dry pavement and a lot more stress on all your drivetrain parts and brakes.

I can do 80 wih 4:88 gears and 35s at 2700 rpms. you gotta think we also have converter lockup. my truck has a 4l60e. his probably has a 6l60e with ould make his 1st gar lower then mine.

I'd see about getting a decent tune done by a performance shop if I were you. Or if you're really serious, invest in a better torque converter. Something with like a 2800 stall. That'd really wake it up. Either of those options would cost less than regearing it. Unless yours is only 2 wheel drive..

Steve Duval. My thoughts exactly . these guys dont use the line lock anymore when i was a kid i had line locls and mffler cutouts valves on every car . we would pull to a stop set line locls to bypass rear brakes then pull a lever in front of seat to allow exhaust to dump 4" away from cat it would cause anyoneto turn and watch within a 1/4 as id blow a weeks pay smoldering tires while feathering the front brakes with my left foot. Wow i feel 18 again just talking about it. Simple things to do and both for under $300 maybe 5 or 600 now but at beats tuning re gearing and still setting rear brakes on fire

When you said you never let off and the wheels come to a stop, either you needed to use manual and keep it in first or second or the smoke was partially coming from the transmission.
What’s the point of burntouts?
If you start a brake stall, right as the tires start spinning gas all the way to the floor and let off the brake alittle bit and once it red lines, keep it in m1 the entire time
