Where are you from? I'm interested to know.

Changing to 35s should be acceptable. If you want more power you could change to 4.56s but not necessary.

No. If you install 4.56 gears, then you will have better power usage. If you keep the 410 gears, you may be a little slower taking off but you should see a little better on the highway. The problem with this theory is that the truck will push more air with bigger tires.

I have 33s with 410 gears and a 302. I wish I had 456 gears. It already has no low end power and I can't go faster than 70mph.

Well ya got to take one or the other. A 3.55 ratio will provide you with more top end speed. But a 4.56 ratio will give a better crawl ratio. Also depends what tire size you are running. A 4.10 rear with the t-case in low would work just fine.

And you don't get better gas milage in going from 4.10 to 4.56. Just not going to happen.
