If you have an automatic you already have 3.53's I think or close to it. If you just got to 3.73's you will probaly be dissapointed with the upgrade and not feel much bang. If you plan on staying with an automatic go with 3.90. Its a great gear between the 2 you mentioned and the one I plan on going with.

my aod had 2.73's.......and your thinking of 3.55's
as far as i know, 3.27 is the lowest gear they came with stock

yeah i have 2.73s and they suck so if i get 3.73s or 4.10s it would be nice

4.10's for auto 3.73's for manual. You'll want the extra bang since is AOD. That way u can keep up with the manuals.

Go with 4.10s, you won't be disappointed.

dont kid yourself, I have an auto w/ 3.73's and a shift kit, its going to take a lot more to keep up manuals then gears brotha

4.10's will help w/ that stock tranny. You won't be as happy w/ anything less. A new tq converter and a shift kit will help you a LOT.
