Expect a gain of .1-.3 seconds off your times and your speedo will recalibrate itself to the new gears. The only thing that changes the speedo is different height tires.

Well I hope you were not expecting to gain 100hp with the gears, what your basically doing is moving your powerband around with the gears. It's feels a lot faster because your power comes on quicker. There are even a few guys that get slower with a lower gear, since traction can be an issue on the track and you can run out of gear and go into OD. 4.10 gear is a great gear for those that like to drive on the highway. I have 4.56 gears and it can become a tad annoying at speeds over 75mph. Don't get so hung up on times and just make sure your having fun driving your truck.

well, I put 4:56 gears in my 5.2 ram, and it woke my truck up, it was unbeatable off the line with my 285-65-16 pirellis, but as the speed increased, the power was lost, I couldn't gain past 90 when it shifted in to od, it actually was slower top end, but bottom end was unbelievable..my 2 cents

I just bought a 2003 Durango with 5.9 and 3.92 rear. I'm really very disappointed with its performance. Traded my '99 Durango with same engine and (I think) same rear gearing -- it was a road rocket. Question for those of you who know about these things: Can I swap out the rear with, say, 4.10 gears? If so, is it expensive or difficult to do? Where would I go to get it done?

especially with a 4.7 the power is all up top. It likes to rev, the higher gears will help it alot. also from a rolling speed it will increase driveability to get the engine out of the 1500-3200 range and into some power without having to gear down. Be advised though with us 5 speed guys, more shifting! time for a short throw!. Frog> those gears for a 9.25? Put em up here and youll sell em quick!
