If you do re-gear there are many options other than just the 4.10s. I have the 3.73 and if/when I do it I will likely go to 4.44 or 4.56.
I towed for 11 years with a 47RE/4:10's, same ratios, and would NOT wanted lower gears. Chris
I agree with you. My 2005 has 3.73 and really does great with a 4 speed auto. 2000 RPM with the factory tires is 70 MPH on the button. When I replaced the tires @ 75,000 I stepped up a size and now @ 2000 RPM it is 74 MPH on the button. I believe 4.10's would put it back close to factory gearing. It pulls my 20,000# fine now but at factory gearing 70@2000 it would be great. I do have a little added power that makes a difference also but at the OP's weights I beleive 3.73 would be great.
