I was gonna get 4.56, but i found a deal on some 4.30s (55 dollars), my question is should i go ahead and get the 4.30s

1. 4.2 2wd 5 speed with 33s (member name is a differnet truck)
2. I do towing, not heavy tho
3. I dont do highway much

and also i have 52,000 miles, so should i go ahead and get the install kit?

also the gears are used out of a licoln mark viii, they should fit right?

 

what yr model is the mark viii? there was a pinion change in around 98-99, on the 9.75/10.25 good luck on the install of used gears. I would get an install kit to have just in case,,,provided you could return it and get refund if not opened. rossford..

 

i cant figure out by your post is your truck 2wd or 4x4? username says 4x4 but your post is confusing either way id go 4.56, if you cant decide between 2 ratios rule of thumb is always go with the lowest(numerically highest)ratio.

 

all 8.8's R and P are the same as far as fit up. i was thinking Navigator earlier for some reason. ....rossford
