Sorry, I know its another gear question. Well I just ordered my off road h, now it's time to order some gears. I cant decide which to go with so maybe you guys can help me out. I dont do much highway driving, only about 3 miles to work. I dont see the track much....maybe twice a year. I plan on keeping my car well past its 100k mile mark. Which do you think is best for me?

4.10,but you may even want to consider 3.73 as well. Just in case you ever end up doing any highway driving in the future.

And at 70mph I'm just a tick higher. Makes the whole driving around town thing much more exciting...

4.10

Hey,
I got the 4.10's installed in March on my 02 GT and love them.
I am at 2200 rpms in 5th gear at 70 MPH.
4.30's I don't know about but you will love the 4.10's. If you do a lot of highway driving, I would go with 4.10's. If mostly City driving and you do a lot of drag racing street/strip then go with 4.30's.
I am glad I went with 4.10's and wouldn't care to go to 4.30's.
Your decision though.

if you are hesitant on 4.10's, just get Motive 3.90's.
