I have the 3.55 open diff in my X (axle code 45) and I was wondering if running these stock gears with 31s will absolutely kill my performance (acc., gas, etc) I will be putting on the Gibson Cat Back system so that should help...anything else i could do to improve, or at least get back to normal performance after the mod...(and i have searched, but i couldnt find any personal anecdotes from people with 3.55s and 31s.) Thanks.

i have 3.27's and they work fine on the street. Offroad it would be nice to have them abit lower, you should be fine.
 






im running 3.08s so you should be fine
 






holy crap..3.08? i have 3:73s and it acts like stock. but i want 4:10s for the extra pep..
 






Your fine. I noticed a little loss with my 31`'s & I have 3.27's.
