Just a few questions for people that went from 3.73's to 4.10's.

- what was your rpm increase at cruising speeds? (5.3 auto)
- what were your track gains from gear change alone?
- are 2wd and 4wd carriers the same on the half tons? (I can only assume the 4wd is larger)

thanks.

 

you won't notice much difference going from 3.73 to 4.10

 

all i noticed was about a 200 rpm difference and nothing really off the line!!!

 

hmmmm, yeah I kind of figured. I like my 3.73's anyway's, they are almost a good all around gear. thanks guys!

 

so, for those that are still planning a gear swap (myself) from 3.73 to x.xx, would you guys rather recommend a 4.30 or 4.56 gear? im wondering if 4.56 would be a little TOO far... but i dont wanna put 4.10 in and be disappointed... keep in mind im runnin a 5-speed manual.

 

i could only imagine what it would feel like with 4.56's behind a 5 speed. i might would do a 4.30

 

 

well, im also thinkin long-term down the road stuff too... i plan to put a T56 in, and from what ive read, 4.56 is the PERFECT gear behind the T56. I'm so torn!!!!

 

so im assuming its the same for 3.42 to 3.73? not much of a notice that is....

 

I noticed a difference in mine when I went from 3.73's to 4.10's. Particularly cruising around town.
