4.10s will only suck if you wheel alot and are intalling bumpers, winch and tire carrier.
if you do that and then add more stuff to carry around then you def want 4.56s atleast.
if its just DD and no added weight then 4.10s would be ok. but even then you will wish you went with 4.56s. Gearing for DD also depends on how hilly ur area is.
For me? i live in the flat lands..lol. I also don't wheel at all. I know what a waste.
but i am doin bumpers eventually and i will be DD again eventually, so i'm goin with 4.56s.
the diff between 4.10s and 4.56s is like 200 rpm. not enough imo to not go with 4.56s. 4.88s if you live in a hilly area. imo 5.13s if you live in a hilly area with bumpers and added wight in the back, etc and wheel alot.

Yeah I'll get 4.56 when I get a job and stuff. But I live in Spanish Springs, Nevada, it's not hilly here but I will get a front number when I have the money but I'm not sure about a tire carrier I have to see how a 33 fits in the back ( probably wont even fit at all cause the 29' barely fits)
I hear ya. i want bumbers too, but no money either. i'm not doin a rear carrier, but i am goin with 4.56s.

I know the money is so hard I'm just gonna save up for the kit cause my parents are helping me with the tires which is awesome!
It is the X-series, my advice is if you use that kit order it with the dropped track bar and drop pitman arm. The track bar that comes with the kit is garbage. And you would benefit from having a M14 2.0 tap and die on hand
