Re-gearing questions

2006 f150 5.4 H9 axle so 3.55 limited slip. I have 35 inch tires and planning to re-gear. I Have a gryphon programmer custom tuned and cold air intake. I was thinking 4.10s or 4.11s would be good since I just do city driving and off-roading, and on the highway. If any of you guys have ran 4.10s 4.11s or 4.56s with 35s or just have experience with gears let me know how much much power I will get back from losing all that power from the larger tires.

Keep in mind that you are still running more unsprung weight (static mass), more rotational inertia, higher rolling resistance and poorer aeros -

NONE of that is going away. Hence, you will still be behind the curve - both power and mileage-wise - over stock.

good luck

I just regeared from 3.55 to 4.10 and only run 33s. Go with 4.56 for 35s.
