Well, this is an easy choice. Either 4.30 or 4.56 gears with a short throw shifter.

sorry, forgot to mention i already have 3.73's. I wouldnt mind having 4.10 or 4.30,s but hate to buy another set (3.73's were in it when i bought it). probably definatly going to go with the shifter. which do u prefer. I have heard the pro 5.0 base with the steeda tri-ax shifter is the best from a few people. what do u guys think?
