Do you know if that gear set will work with a 3600 3/4 ton rear end? I believe
it's a 4.57?

Patricks makes a 3.38:1 set of rear gears for you roriginal housing, your
original is most likely a 3:90, i've heard many good reviews of the 3:38
gears. The price is the ouchy part....395.00 for gears and then ya need the
installation kit if you've gone that far--install kit comes with new
bearing for everthing to make a completely rebuilt rear end. Wayne
