As I stated earlier, I will be using 33" tires in the winter from November to March. That is approx. 9,000 miles a year. I just want to make sure the 4.56 gears will be ok to run that much on the 33" tires. I know they will be ideal for the 35" tires.

I understand that and I did read the thread.
I was comparing my 4.10s with stock size tires to a 33 tire with 4.56 gears! The RPMs will be very close to the same.
It's your truck do whatever ya want. Just trying to help!

I ran that for a year and there was nothing wrong with it, I loved how it performed but in the end its your decision not ours.

I am sorry if I came off rude in my last post. I didn't mean it to sound like that. I just want to make the right decision. I really do appreciate the feedback. I am not very mechanically inclined and need all the help I can get when it comes to making this decision.

I would say 4.56 if you have 3.73 now, if you have 3.55 now 4.10's wouldn't be a bad choice. If you are going to run 35's at all and are going to regear, then go ahead and get 4.56. You'll be happier with the results.
