Gears for 35's
Got an '04 FX4 Screw and am about to put 35's on it and was wondering the right gears to use? I was guessing 4.10 or 4.30 but didn't know if the new F150 came with an 8.8 or a 10.25 rear end. I'm pretty sure I have 3.73's right now.

Ok, they stopped useing the 8.8s, and the steerling 10.25s were in superdutys, and they stoped using this one too.
You have a 9.75" Ring gear, and for 35s, 4.10 gears wouldn't put you back to stock gearing.
IF it were me, I'd put 4.56s, and at worste 4.30s.

If you check on the Ford website you will see that Ford offers the SuperDuty with a 5.4 and 4.30 gears as a factory option. All the factory tires are around 31 to 32 inches.
