The calculated gear ratio to keep the same RPMs/vehicle speed is 4.24. Your choices are 4.10, 4.56 and there is a ratio in between for 2WD only (no front gears available). I think it is a 4.27. Since you have a 2WD, I would go with the 4.27 since it will keep the same feel in acceleration that you have now. If you go with 4.10 you will pick up some highway mileage at the expense of city mileage and accleration. If you go with 4.56 you will pick up some acceleration, city mileage will be similar to stock but highway mileage will drop some.
