3.42 vs 3.73 vs 4.10 Gears Racing Comparison

[@Chris-qb3mg]

Knowing is half the battle. Humility is the Win amongst True Enthusiasts! Nice vid Man

[@yungchucktaylor]

I like how you think what better way to test the theory

[@JKZ103]

I went 3.90... only because I have a 3200 stall and don't need 4.10's to get going. My truck also puts 470 to the wheels so that helps alot. Highway driving with to much gear sucks

[@aldochavez7523]

Just for everyone out there do your research if your truck or any car is a daily too high of a gear ratio will fuck up your mpg if you don't care then go for it and you're not adding power you're just choosing how to put that power to the ground. You're just choosing between good launch/acceleration and low top speed or higher top speed and not so good launch/acceleration

[@arevalosgarage1275]

Yes that is true when I had 3.42 I was getting 16 on 93. And with these I get around 12 to 14 depending. But the guy gets 10 mpg on 4.10s

[@TitanDaddy5.6]

3.96 just the go to low enough for quick launches and high enough for rolls

[@elbigboy123]

Thanks for the video, im going to install 4:10s on my 06 silverado 5.3, im close by here in Beaumont Tx

[@arevalosgarage1275]

Your welcome boss. And I recommend 4.10s for all 4 door 5.3 trucks

[@5.3david17]

So I guess imma go with 4.10 for max torque think about it like this when you race another truck you only doing a pull or 2 your not gonna be racing for 2 miles 3.73 are better in the long run 🤷🏼‍♀️ if I understand this video right

[@jahbeatline5801]

I agree too. Base on this video.

[@BigAiden16]

4:10 for the win!!

[@moose5775]

Do 4.10s in the 6l80 feel to low or does it feel not that differently compared to the 3.73s?

[@lil2.74]

Thats not necessarily true. 4.10 gears help on the launch, it enables your truck to get into the rpm where you make power sooner. But it also gets you into 2nd gear "higher gear" sooner. So once you are in 2nd the 3.42 is still in first. There are other factors as well, a shorter tire changes your effective ratio and different transmissions have different ratios. It isn't as simple as lower rear gears make you faster. The quickest and fastest F150 naturally aspirated 5.0 Coyote guys run 3.31s and shorter than stock tires. Boss Awesome Regular Cab F150 ran 11.7s, naturally aspirated with 3.31 gears before he put a supercharger on it. Louis Marquez Supercrew 5.0 runs 11.9, naturally aspirated. No low gears. My 2016 Screw port injected 5.0 6 speed tune only ran a 13.7, launching in 2wd on a horrific 60ft, 2.23. In 4wd and a 2.0, that would be low 13. 3.55 gears on 20s. I had a tuned full bolt on 2.7 Ecoboost 6 speed Screw that ran 12.46 in the quarter mile with 3.55. I tried 3.91s, it was slower.

[@swathdiver489]

Turbochargers don't like to pull on low (high numerically) gears.

My daily 05 GMC 4wd has 4.10s and a Lm7 5.3, my 07 silverado 2wd on E85 stock except for a posi unit has 3.26 gears, and my 6000lb GMC will smoke it out of the hole. I'd recommend 4.30s for your daily cuz I drive 4.10s daily and my tach is at 2100 at 65 MPH. My Chev is getting 4.55s. And 4.10s ain't shit unless its a 4 speed muscle car or 3 speed auto. With overdrive 4.30s will be perfect.

@@arevalosgarage1275 Thats cool, nothing wrong with 3.73s.

I’ve been hearing that it’s better to have low gears for the 10speeds. Im not sure if that’s true but look into it. Look at the Ford forums. They’ve been having the 10speeds a little longer. 3.42s might be a little more ideal

Los 3.42 son más para andar manejando en el freeway. Son muy enconomicos a la gasolina. Y los de 3.73 y 4.10 agarramos 10 a 12 millas al gallón. Personalmente yo prefiero los 3.73.

I'm doing around 3500 rpms at 65mph....need good low end burnouts and a low rpm cruise ....

[@eyeshocars9978]

I'd do a 3.08 sounds like you have like a 4.30 in it or so. With a 3.08 you'd be running around 94 mph at the same 3500 rpm instead of 65 mph. And 2400-2500 rpm at 65 mph with a 3.08. it really depends on what rpm your engine makes it torque and tire height makes a difference.
