So what have to done with the 3.73 that you took out?

 

Put them in a box with a "for sale" sign on them. They have 3000 miles on them.

 

Is that 4.56s front and back? Im in the process of buying a 05 F150 s/crew 4x4, and will swap gears once I do the Lift. Also, who makes lockers for these trucks?

 

Yea, front AND back... I wouldn't recommend doing only the rear unless you're never going to use the 4 hi/Lo.

Don't know about lockers since I only swapped ring and pinions...

 

how much for the 3.73s? where did you get the 4.46's at and how much did they set you back? would like to do it but still researching for when i lift! thans in advance!!!

 

I got the 4.56s from Randy's Ring and Pinion and had a local shop do the install. If you want the 3.73s email me.

 

they said they dont have a listing for 4.56's but they reccomended 4.88s for 35s....

 

how much $$?
I called randys and was quoted $1600 installed. front/rear
I had them do my dakota 4.56 f/r w/detroit locker..

 

Sal,

Lokos good. What is your backspacing and offset? Any cutting required for th 37s? any rubbing? How does teh Ranco ride with that set up?

 

Imo, I think 4.88 maybe too much for 35s. I like my 4.56s on 37s and I think that 4.56s also maybe too much for 35s. Those are my opinions, it also depends on what type of driving you do i.e. highway, towing, mostly city, it depends on your driving profiles and where you keep your rpms.

 

Backspacing is 6.5 inches and the knobbys on the side of the tires rub a little on full turns. Also, I can't used rear shock boots because of the backspacing. If I had maybe 5.5 or 6 inches of backspacing it would be perfect.

I love the ride of my Rancho, it rides like a dream...very plush!

 

nice lookin' rig!
