    If you are running an inline 6 with a np231 with the 2.72:1 LR i would run a 4.88

    Its a great gear but still streetable.

    one other thing to keep in mind on the ford 9" is that you are going to loose clearance distance. Probably not a problem if your going to run big tires like 35-37 inchers.

    from what I understand about this swap you would loose around 2-3" of clearance.
