  5. DIY Regear/Central Florida Shops

    alot easier than a dana 35 or ford 8.8 with the shim on the outside of the bearing . 5.13 should be fine but the pinion will be the weak link . 4.88 will be right where the stock ratio would be with 4.10 and 285/70r17 . 5.13 will give you a little more juice .
