Message:
i have a 3.9 5 speed with 3 inch body and 33x12.50 ssr's but i have those 3.5 gears. would the 3.95 gears help with gas milage? or would it help for take off. or should i go 4.10's and call it done in case i want to put the 6 inch lift with 35's later down the road.

From what I've read going to the 4.10's helped some with gas mileage. Depends on your driving habits and in your case if your thinking about running 35's I think the 4.10's would be a must. The 3.92's would probably be pretty good with the 33's but 35's are gonna kill the V6. I refuse to get some 33's til I regear. Probably going with the 4.10's. This is just my opinion though.

thanks for the feedback. i have mostly highway miles. the coast guard has me running everywhere. i want to get the 6 inch lift and put 35 boggers. so ur right i should regear to the 4.10. and if get the 318 engine swap she'll be even nastier. -shappi USCG

33 are as big as I would go with 1/2 ton axles. 1/2 ton axles are not really meant for 35 inch tires or bigger.
