ok i want 4.10 gears for my truck and i was told on one of the other sights that i need high pinion gears but idk if thats truck can someone explain this to me

 

"low" gears are numerically high. A low gear would be 3.90, 4.10, 4.56, 5.10 etc. Best for low end speed, towing, off-road, compensation for larger tires.

"high" gears are numerically low. Such as 2.76, 3.23, 3.55 and such. More suited for top end speed, and more desirable cruising rpm.

 

not what im asking about i know that **** this has nothing to do with the gear ratios

 

He's talking about the actual cut for the gears. I think the fronts are high pinion but I don't remember.

 

gotcha

 

well i have a classified ad at RPS and this is what the guy said so now im confused on what gears i need for my 94 dana 35


here

 

97 and older is reverse rotation, 98 and up is standard rotation. I think he got those mixed up.

 

Yeah I don't think there is a high pinion 8.8. High pinion means the pinion gear sits up high.

 

We're talking about the Dana 35 anyway lol

 

gezz lol so what year do i need gears out of?

 

Well I'm not sure if they make a high pinion Dana 35.

 

where is beard when i need him

In 1998 the Ford Ranger went to a Dana 35 IFS front axle. The Dana 35 IFS switched from a reverse rotation gear to standard rotation gear. The gears in a 1997 and older Ranger/Explorer will not work in the 1998 and newer Rangers.

You have reverse rotation. You don't need Beard you just need to search a bit.

 

Yep thats where I got my info from. So any 84-97 Expo or Ranger will work.

 

ok sweet anything with ttb suspension
