what kind of ring and pinion do I need with 35's?
I want it real low with a top speed of around 90 or100 so I can still do 70 on the interstate without being right at redline, but it is very rarely that I go there.
lots of torque!!!

35s and 90/100 mph don't go hand and hand. There's no reason to go that fast especially in a lifted rig. I'd suggest you trade in your rig and go find a honda or something if you intend to drive that fast.

Oh yeah for 35s I suggest 5.13s minimum but your speeds will never reach what you want.
 






If you read closely I said 90-100 so I can go 70 without being at redline,but still thanks alot!
 






Figure out what ratio you have on there now, do the math to figure out what exactly puts the vehicle back to its original ratio with 35" tires, and bump it up one gear ratio for a little bit more torque and you should be good to go.

If you dunno the math, search the site or Google.
 






is the front the same as the rear or do I have to look for D35 gears?
Where is a good place to get both set's?
need to get these ASAP after grenading my trans today.:thumbsup:
