T19 and Np435 question

Nothing wrong with 3.55's at all and a good OD you will get decent mileage and still have OK pulling power.

The benefit of splitting shifts is nice too BTW!

Remember you will need new drive shafts as well doing the Ranger addition.

This is not as simple a bolt in as some presume.

Not sure though if you have 4.10's why you don't for now just throw in ranger and see how you like it and later if need be swap 3.55's in????

The thing that makes mine not much of a hassle is that I'm going from auto to standard anyway, so I weighed my options and this yields more gears than a zf, a lower first, and a steeper overdrive. So I would need to change driveshafts anyways. As for the why opt for the swap of 3.55 right off the bat, I already know what a .73 overdrive with 4.10's as it wouldn't be much of change from my current E4OD as far as the overdrive. If I swap in a steeper gearset, I'll have a little more 'overdrive' in comparison to my current setup.
