foxfox14 Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 I notice a lot of guys can get their trucks to 130+ so im wondering if the 4.10s can handle that or if their changing them to 3.73 or something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxfox14 Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Lol heard that but would changing it to a 3.73 make 1/4 times better or worse? I know it adds top end speed but takes away from acceleration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it adds top end speed but takes away from acceleration Don't get it twisted. Lol. Gearing alters your maximum given speed. Generally speaking going to higher gears would make you slower but also depends on the application as a turbo vehicle would benefit from the load.

zippy Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 The 4.10 gear can handle it with no problem I'm not sure why you would think it couldn't handle it. The 4.10 gear with stock tire height will get you to around 128 or so before you want to it to shift to 4th with a stock cam. With a truck running a bigger cam you should have no problem getting 140 or so out of it with the converter locked and still in 3rd gear. I've been over 140 in an SSS in 4th and they do have a bit of a light feel to them. In search for top speed the 4.10 gear is fine considering how tall the tires are on the SSS.
