I would guess the 4.10's give optimum performance with the engine package.

Slider door has more stuff to wear out and break than barn doors. I've had both, but have no preference.

Is it better to get the 3.55 rear or the 4.10 limited slip?

Arundo,

Based on life with Aerostars (slider) and my E350 (barn), I can tell you that the slider makes it easier for passengers to get in and out...
