    3.73 stock, i figured 4.10 or 4.11 wouldn't be enough of a difference. my wheels and tires are really heavy and i really need a little more rpm on the highway to cruise 70-75 without a lot of down shifting. also in theory should be a little easier life(whats left of it lol!) on trans. and of course this decision had nothing to do with wanting to be able to roast the tires

    Thanks for the warning, hopefully I won't reach the limit of driveshaft.
