I plugged in your new tire size of 35" and your old tire size of 31.5" (that is our stock size) and your gear ratio of 5.13 and it is calculating your new effective ratio as 4.62, still pretty deep! Should pull great.
My tires are 35.28" tall and with my 4.88s I have an effective ratio of 4.39 and it does very well with our 11k+ lbs travel trailer.

Fill out your location and a signature to remind folks what year, drive and motor you have with each post and show off your mods!
