gears
« on: 05/22/09 - 08:02PM »
I am puting in a ford 9. I am going to run 35 inch tires. For now the front will be the dana 30, until I can build a dana 44. Do I want to run 4.56 or 4.86 gears?? the 9 will get a Detroit locker. lets hear the input

With that combo I'd stick with 4.56's personally.  With the auto you won't feel the reduction difference between the 2 on the trail and i'd rather turn a few less rpms on the highway.
