Agree with what others have said, if you haven't recalibrate do your speedo then do that. AEV procal is a good unit.

35s and 2.5 lift you should be getting 14mpg (+/-1mpg) in the city/mixed unless you drive aggressively.

After you get procal.. If you are still looking to re-gear. Here is a place to get gears. I ordered from them and got a ripper deal on Yukon gears. http://www.4ws.com/
