Anyone ever think of upgrading thier gear ratio to 4.56?
Seems to me that with 35" tires, 4.56 would be the optimum gear ratio, not the stock 4.10.
They'd give better performance around town with better acceleration, and with the overdrive gear in the tranny, the RPM's would still be reasonable on the highway. Also, the lower gears would be an asset offroad, allowing for a better crawl ratio and better compression braking while going down hills.
Any thoughts on this?
Oh, and can anyone tell me what thier RPM is while cruising at 70mph on the highway?
Thanks.
