4.10 gears
Okay,
Whats the deal? Am I the only person on here that has an Excursion 6.8L 4x4 XLT with the 4.10 gears?
Is this some kind of mishap on my part?
So how many of you other X owners have the 4.10 gears?
Thanks
Big Mick

After posting my response I did a little searching and found that we have the 3.73. The first digits on the bottom numbers indicate ratio.

The number denotes the rear end gear ratio.
3.73:1 and 4.10:1
The first number (before the : ) is the amount of turns the drive shaft turns to ONE turn of the rear wheel.
The lower the number the steeper the gearing.
4.10:1 will make your engine turn at a higher RPM for any given speed versus the 3.73:1.
Steeper gearing can allows you to tow larger loads without undue strain to the engine and tranny (versus 3.73) and are generally stronger due to less teeth in the ring gear for the same ring gears of the same diameter. In this case, 10.5".
