I was simply wondering if anyone has the 4.9 Gears and hoping to find out their impressions. Any input would be great. I have done extensive searches looking for 4.9 information and have thus far been unable to find anything. Also, I do not wish to open back up any gearing debate as during my searches I have seen the 8,564,767 other threads in which this was the case. Thanks a lot

 

I read on here somewhere about someone that had 5.10 gears. I can't find the thread though. I'd imagine you'd be looking at much the same issues. The general consensus was that it was too much if you do any kind of highway driving.

 

I think I saw a set of 4.9's in the for sale section today. Ask that guy what he thinks about them.

 

There are some J's in the FS forum right now.

 

I am buying the J's in the forum but the guy who is selling them never installed them, I have located the thread of the guy who sold them originally and pm'ed him but he has yet to respond and was just looking for anyone else who had any experience with them. Thanks for the responses though

 

As far as I know, (and I know alot about gears) there are no installed ratios higher then 4.77 know at this time.

 

Well, the guy in th f/s section is selling a set he bought not too long ago from someone who said in his post when he was selling them that they had 10k miles on them. Someone knows something somewhere haha
