Big Red said:Right.
When matching up a Dana axle to a Ford or Toyota, you cannot always get the exact same gear ratio. I've heard of used 5.38 gears on ebay from racers, I think NASCAR or some oval racing with a few runs on them, but I wanted new Yukon gears.

BrettM said:4.88 is the safe answer. Some are happy with their 4.56s, some are happy with their 5.13s. Personally I have 4.88s (and auto tranny) and would like 5.13s.
Yep, I just put on a set of 35s and I really wish I had more then 4.88s.wvredxj said:this man knows what it is about, i have 35's with 4:88's, and wish i had a deeper set.........it was almost perfect when i put the 215's on to go get a modified sticker.
