If I was going to go through the trouble of changing gears I would at least go 4.56. As for parts you can go to 4wheelparts.com just to look around at what you need as far as parts(wouldnt actually buy from there but its a place to look).

I've got the factory 3.73 in mine. I still have plenty of power but I do have Edge level 3 and a few other perf upgrades. Have you looked in buyin a tuner of any kind. This would be a much cheaper way to get back some of your lost power.
