No gear ratio by the VIN number.
Do you have a tach?
How fast will your truck run?

With a four speed in high gear a 4.10 gear usually tops out in the mid 70's.
Likewise a 3.55 gear tops out in the mid 80's.

Around 70-73 is about as fast as she will go, so I guess 4.10 would be it. Later on I am going to try and find a five speed, and hopefully that extra gear will save me on fuel a little bit. Thanks for the info
