Re-gearing

I have been putting this of but need to get it done. What would be a recommended gear ration for a 6.0L with 40x14.5 tires? Thanks in advance.

4.56 gears.

You don't mention if you tow? Have a tuned 6.0L PSD? Mostly highway miles empty or huge payload?

Have the odd payload, mostly a couple moto bikes so nothing major.
