This is an interesting topic that I just realized pertains to my situation! I was planning to put 285's on my yukon after I get the keys and spacers. Do I need 4.10's? And saying I do how much work/money is it to do that?

I was more or less asking whether there would be any need to regear or not..., but thanks for the information!

ahh my mis-read. I have the stock 3.73 setup, i dont know what you guys are talking about with gear changing. My yukon drives about the same as it ever has with the 285's on it and i never drive faster than 80mph so i can only speak from the standard driving range pov.
