Pre-Purchase Question Ov tune or regearing?

I did both, but I think you really need to consider what you are going to be doing with your truck 80% of the time. I regeared to 5.29 but I only take my truck off road and consistently have 400-600 lbs of extra gear. By regearing I was looking for better hill climbing and low end power and I got it. But I was also hoping the regear was going to tame my schizophrenic transmission, it did not. So I got the OV Tune and it has really helped with that aspect. If you are driving your truck to work everyday at freeway speed on 32s and only off roading on the weekends, you probably want an OV Tune. But if you are only off roading, carrying tons of weight or have 35s you would really benefit from a re gear.
