35's with 4.56's??

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 05-Aug-02 AT 02:20 PM (EST)]Well I am about to take the plunge I have a connection at a near by 4X4 shop that can get my gears done for 1100 bucks out the door. the geers are genuine gears so they are name brand and I trust the guys that work there so install is not a issue.

What I am really after is, are 4.56's too much gear for 35's? I have a V10 and the 3.73 really kill the power when I am pulling my toy box with the quads in it. Does anyone know what kind of R's I will turn with the 35's and a 5 speed manual at 70-75? I have a dailly driver that gets 35 MPG so around town gas mileage in not a issue but what can I expect while towing?

Thanks

I think you'll like them. I have the auto with overdive, 4.56 gears 36" tires. I also ran these gears with 35's. They worked great with 35's and you'll have enough gear if I want to move up to 38's... uh I mean if you want to move up to 38's.
