Ok so I have a 96 xlt 4.0 5 speed on 35's but it's still only has the 4.10 I want to upgrade to a set of 4.88 does anyone know where to get the gears for the front since they are reverse cut D35. I have found the 8.8 is easy to get gears for as everyone has them but where do I get a set for the front thank you

Do 4.56

D35 front, 8.8 rear, 3.73 gears, limited slip rear diff

Why do you say 4.56 I used a gear calculator 4.88 would put me back to stock. It is it the fact that 4.88 are extremely hard to find for the front end

which is my point 4.56 would be easier to find cuz the made the D35 ttb and 8.8 with 4.56
it would make your life easier

Ok thank you. I would like the 4.88 for the power but I do highway and pull a trailer now and then do you think the 4.56 will do the job well?

it will be better then what you got for sure but not as good as 4.88
I'm just looking at finding the gears and how hard it will be to install that's all
I'm sure 4.88 is possible to do in a D35 TTB and 8.8
if you do go with 4.88 you will prolly want to get 31 spline shafts
