Just wondering if 35 with stock gearing is a bad idea. I have 33 now, a rebuild tranny with stock gear will it mess everything up? please help

 

im thinking about putting my 35s on with the 4.10s tomorrow

actually MudRanger97 has that setup...


and it would help to know what you have in your truck/year

 

4.10's would be pushing it... i would go with 4.56's if you are gonna run 35's

 

im runnin 35's with my 4.10's right now... used to wheel it hard as hell, never had problems (knock on wood)

 

I had 35's w. 3.55's. It was slow to say the least.

I had 31's with 3.73 gears and that killed me, I don't know how you guys with 35's and 4.10's can stand that.

 

cuz i kno mine anit a race car, but i drive it like it is anyways.. lol

 

i have 3.73 with 33 right now

 

WOW That must have sucked bad.


As for 35's and 3.73's. Think how bad the 33's are compared to the pep you had with stock tires. With 35's it will suck. I hate 33's and 3.73 that is why I am installing 4.56's. I'll let you know how I like them tomorrow(the axle is almost ready to go in the truck).

 

my chevy still has stock gears with 40's and it does fine burnsout and everything

 

Funny guy with the 350. Too bad we all can't drive a Chevy but hey somebody has to be able to pick up the Chevy guys when their trucks fall apart.

 

I think I have you all beat. 3.73's on 35's yeah it sucks big time. I have 4.56s sitting in my garage waiting to be installed.

 

I got 31s with 3.36s and I can still tear up my tires fine on a stock 4.0

 

i dont think so.... i would be willing to do 33's with 3.73's but 35's is passed pushing it for me....

 

my 5th gear is never used. unless im traveling down hill. it just bogs down my 3.0 I dont think I could lay rubber down ever if I dumped my clutch, actually it can't just stalls out the engine. LOL. but yeah 4.56s should solve that problem

 

Didn't know 3.36 was an option in a Ranger.

But I know that sucks big time. The Bronco II I had, had 30" with 3.45 and that sucked.

 

where should i go to to get new gearing to run 35's well?

 

im running 35s on 4.10s and moves fine for me

 

I have 35s and 4.10s and my truck is still nice and fast and people comment on it pushing them back in their seats.

Not as fast as stock, but i could probably still beat on a 3.0 like a redheaded stepchild.
