I don't know, I feel like my 4.10 gearing with the 33" tires is still pretty intense. My truck really just doesn't want to go faster than 75 mph, and gets very loud if I try to ride any faster. I love the 4.10 around town, but it's not the greatest on the highway. The loud exhaust doesn't help, but I can tell the engine is running out of speed at around 75mph.

I ended up buying the mickey thompson baja atz radial pluses. It's the least aggressive of the ATZ series. I really just wanted to make sure I got the smooth ride. So far they have been great. They thump a little more on the highway than my previous pirelli scorpions, but nothing crazy.

Sorry I havn't been around a computer since i asked the question. So if i would upgrade my axles to dana 60's or 80's would they have the right gear in them for the 35 inch tires?

You wont find an 80 front, only a 60. And they typically have 3.55's in them, some 4.10's, so you don't really know until you find some. I wouldn't run 35's with 3.55 gears. The 4.10's would be OK.

I hated 35's with 4.10's. It was aweful. I wouldn't go anything less then 4.56.

Okay, Thanks. I may just go with a 3 inch lift. I won't do a body lift. I don't like them.
