Default 4.56 and 35's

Who all is running 35s with 4.56 gearing? I'm looking to regear mine and want to know how many rpms I will be running at 70-80 mph.

What brand gears do y'all suggest I'm choosing between Yukon and motive gears? Yukon is $208 and motive gears are $259

I am no help between the two you have chosen, I am running with the G2's and couldn't be happier. But honestly, I doubt you would have any problem and be very happy with either of those two you chose.

I second the ~2350 at 80. Running 315/70/17 so slightly smaller than 35 but pretty close. I have Yukon and am happy with them. Slight gear whine, but not bad at all. I also have heard that the brand doesn't matter that much. Have yet to read a negative thread about a specific brand.

Thanks for all the great input guys I appreciate it. Ill probably end up going with Yukon since they are a little cheaper.
