ok so i got my trucks build sheet today from dodge. it has 3.55 gears. and also now has 275/55-20 where it was 265/70-17 stock. and it need more go. so gear chage is in order. will 4.10s be a good pick since i cant find 4.30s for the 9.25 and i worry 4.56 might be to much. anyone else have an opion?

4.10 is a good in between for 3.73's and 4.56's. I wouldn't go 4.56's unless you plan on running bigger tires than that. Stay under a 33 with 4.10's

My buddy is running 4.56 with his 4.7 with 20's...he really has to baby it on wet pavement sometimes and his is a pre 08 too, with less power and tq...I agree with Brandon...

Its a noticeable change from 3.55's to 4.10's. Some have regretted including myself for not going up to 4.56's straight away but to each their own. In terms of the wet pavement you just have to be in touch on how your truck responds and adjust your pedal response to it. If it means egg shelling to the speed limit then so be it.
