BTW: NOT all Rangers have the 28 spline axle.........the FX4 Level II's have a 31 spline axle from the factory....

4.10's, 3.0 and 35's work for me, still have good power anywhere, was getting close to 18mpg on the hwy and about 12-13 in the city, once you first put them on you may notice it but after awhile you will be used to it, its a 3.0 so its not going to be winning any drag races any time soon(except for a few of you on here) i say go for it, its your truck do what you want.......

for example, when i was stock, i had 31's and 3.73 gears.....i got around 17-18 mpg on the highway......when i lifted and put on the 33's with 3.73 gears, i got 14-15 mpg on the highway......when i lifted again and put on 35's with 3.73 gears, i got 11-12 mpg on the highway (not to mention that i was almost never in overdrive and creating excessive amounts of heat in the tranny; i remember my tranny temp being above 260* at 1 point)........when i regeared and had 35's and 4.56 gears, i now get 16-17 on the highway.......

ill probably go 4.56 on 35's but i would really like 4.88s or lower with a new tranny and 2 OD gears lol
