I'm thinking about picking up a set of 4.56 gears. Has anyone tried them?

Mine is straight line only. I have a ford 8.8 rear end already but it's got 3.73's in it right now and it's just annoying to drive.

 

Drive around using 4th gear as your top gear... can you accept that? If so, go for it.

That's the only problem in my mind with the 8.8" rear, the lack of gears lower than 4.56... (speaking as an N/A guy who believes top gear should top out around 120ish MPH... who needs faster than that eh?) Which is why I keep thinking Dana 44 instead of Ford 8.8.....

 

I think you should go 4.10, or 4.33, 4.56 might be a little too much.

 

another vote for 4.10.. i have 4.56's in my camaro and going down the interstate sounds like a WOT run for it.. it was alot more dramatic going from 3.23 (yea yea,i know) to 4.56 then i thought it would be
