What gears would be ideal for my setup?
Very hard decision here
I have a 99 ram with a 6 in lift with 35" tires with stock gears(3.5)
mainly used on road(60 mph) and occasional off road.
I located a guy wanting to swap chunks with 4.56 gears.
Is 4.56 too low of a gear?
Thanks

thank you for the quick response! Looks like ill make a deal with the guy
assuming you have a 1500 that came with factory tires 225-75-16, the tire size calculator says they are 29.3 inches in diameter.
so 29.2 / 35 = .834 as the ratio of tire change.
3.55 / 4.10 = .866 (still higher)
3.55 / 4.56 = .779 (a touch lower.... very good choice).
