MPH 65 Remember non of these calculations account for torque converter slippage
RPM formula used = (MPH*Trany*rear*336)/tire diam

Here's what some of the colors mean:      
30" tire is base stock with 3.55 & 3.73 option            
30.5" tire as listed with 4.10 payload pkg option            
31" tire is my stock with 3.55 & 3.73 option            
31" & 32" tires are stock on 3.73 fx4            
32.5" if worn, 32.8 on BFG specs and 32.7 calculated for my tires            
                         
After gear change RPM increase 4.56 vs my stock & Ford eng'd tow pkg            
33" My tires 32.7 Over %                    
Stock  323 18%                    
Tow pkg 4.10 77 4% Ford engineered a combination for towing; 4.56's get me just a touch better      
PreGear w/tire 472 27%                    
                         
RPM decrease with tire change vs ford eng'd stock 31" & 30" tires and tow pkg            
33" My tires 32.7 Loss %                    
Stock  -91 -5%                    
Base Stock  -149 -9%                    
Tow pkg 4.10 -395 -19%                    
                         
With 4.56 gears and 32.5+" tire the effective final ratio comparison is pretty much just like a 4.10       
Final drive ratio   Diff 3.55 Diff 4.10 Diff 4.56 increase w/Tires vs stock            
1st 2.84 10.08 11.64 12.95 2.87 1.56 In a higer tq&hp band sooner      
2nd 1.55 5.50 6.36 7.07 1.57 0.85            
3rd 1 3.55 4.10 4.56 1.01 0.55 18% more power xfer vs stock?      
4th OD 0.7 2.49 2.87 3.19 0.71 0.39 4% more power xfer vs stock tow?      
                         
If FOMOCo could callibrate me for a 225/70/17 tire and 4.10 gears it would get my speedo back near match.
