Depends on tire size, if you are running 35" or taller id look into 4.88's or taller. If under 35" i think 4.10 or 4.30 if you can find them. Also depends if you tow alot. If you do i would run a short gear. A locker in the front would work better than gears if you just want to impress some snobbie LR folks! ��

I would go 3.73 or higher. I got the 3.73 and in hindsight, I should have gone with the 4.10 just because I read an article that said the gas mileage would have been within 1 mpg of each other. But I am happy with the 3.73.

2013 3.5 EB with 3.31 axle ratio
F150 Ecoboost ChatThinking of buying this to replace my recently totaled 5.0/3.73. Will I be disappointed with how it pulls my 4500 lb travel trailer here in the Rocky Mountains? I'm a first timer here, not mechanically inclined and with limited towing experience, so please any advice is appreciated! Don't be shy!- 18

Lincoln Navigator hp and torque in my F-150
F150 Ecoboost ChatGoing to be doing an engine swap on my 2013 F-150 with a 2015 Lincoln Navigator 3.5. I was reading how much better this vehicle is than the F-150, my question is how do I get it’s hp and torque into my vehicle when I make the swap. I’m assuming simply the engine is not going to get me those results.- 18

Will 2020 be the last year of HDPP?
F150 Ecoboost ChatI posted this on the other forum but wanted to see thoughts here. I feel like we may be seeing the last of the HDPP. A few reasons I am thinking this: -The 2021 F150 is allegedly going to be a coil-sprung 5 link and possibly even independent suspension. Prototypes of both suspensions have been...- 51
