Gear ratio

Howdy,
I have a 1995 F150 4x4 Regular Cab with a 6" SkyJacker Suspension Lift Kit and am running 35"x12.5" BFGoodrich All-Terrians. It has a Inline 6 in it and currently running 3.55 gears. I was just wondering what are the Pros and Cons of the 4.10 vs. the 4.56
Thanks and Gig Em'

4.10's will do... is it more highway miles or city streets?

City streets go 4.56

But the 4.10's will be a big improvement, i bet your truck is a dog with those 3.55's

Gears

The truck will be mainly used for both and for Off-Roading and was just wondering where I can get the most horsepower and torque back to the wheels

Thanks guys for all the great input. I have decided to go with 4.30 becasue it will be the best all-around gear ratio for my needs.
Thanks and Gig 'em
