Default Diff. gears for 1500 4x4??

I've got an 2005, 1500 4x4, and planning on lifting it to fit some 35" tires in the next few months. I'm curious where I can find some gears. I've done some searches and not found too much. I have 3.55 gears with 265/70R17 tires now. So I plan to change the gears to at least 4.10. I'd even consider 4.56 gears if I could find them. Anyone know some brands, and websites that sell what I'm looking for?

Info on what? Gears or where to get them? Although gears have never been discussed before (insert sarcasm here) I bet using the SEARCH function will pay off. In fact there is a long, argumentative thread not more than a week and a half old. As far as where to get them, http://www.4wheelparts.com/4wp/ORS/s...e2.asp?axle=10

Thanks for the site info, but 4wheel parts was the first place I check, and they offer no information on the front 8" axle. My main questions were "Who sells them? or what brand? and what ratios were available. I know the 9.25" rear axle has a lot of options, I just wanted to make sure of my options for the front axle. Thanks again.

I bought my 4.56's from Ultimate4. I have a 4X4.

456 is the largest you can go with the 8" front diff.

I have Precision Gears in the rear and Yukons in the front.
