So Im looking to do lower gears and a locker. I still have 31s and it is a dd but will probably go with bigger tires once I get more lift. Is 4.56 to low for highway speeds or should I go with the 4.10s. Is there anything else I need when doing gears other then the gears?

make sure you re gear both axles, im in the process of getting 4.10s for my 89, just ran into pinion issues in the front so this just gives me a better reason, ive been told 4.10s are good for the 31-35 range of tires and a decent ride on the highway

4.10s for 31s 4.56s for 33s, and 4.88s for 35s thats if you have an auto.

if you have a manual, id go 3.73 for 31s 4.10s for 33s and 4.56s for 35s
