Hello, I'm looking into purchasing a 2005 XLT Scab 4x4. An immediate upgrade will be a lift and tires. Not sure onthe specifics of the lift/tires but running atleast 33's or better. The question I have is what gear ratio should I get for the best performance. thak u

 

33's, go at least 4:11 any larger, go 4:56

You won't be able to get either of these stock, the best you'll be able to do is 3.73.

 

I believe that you can get 4:10s in the long wheel base SCABs. You could in 04 anyway.

 

yea, 4.10 is an option in the truck i was looking at. So go with that?

 

I have 4.56 gear's in my 04 Lariat Screw and wow sure woke this pig up
