if the gear ratios don't match, its ok for 2wd driving but you must absolutely not use 4wd. it would be best to temporarily remove the front drive shaft to prevent its accidental use.
4.10's and 33's will return you to the original stock ratio. general opinion is that 35's get along better with 35's, but its a bit of a toss-up. consider how much 70+ mph highway driving you plan to do. 4.56's will jack up the freeway RPM a good bit.

I was in the same boat you are in now. I had 456 installed in my truch and they do a great job, but now I wish I had installed 488's.With 456 you will have no problem running down the road at 70.
I also had to wait on installing the front gears. You shouldn't use the 4x4 until you have gears in both front and rear.
