5500 gearing

What is the stock gearing on the 5500 6spd manual? I know 488 is a option.

I think it's 4.44 and as you said 4.88 as an option. The 4500 is 4.10 and 4.44 as an option. (I think)

I looked at dodges web site and it said 410. Mine has 373 and does ok. I think 410 would be perfect for me.

I wonder if there is a gear offered between the 410 and 488 for the 6 speed?

Y'all have to remember that the 4500,5500 have taller tires. That will raise your effective gear ratio, a 4.10 in a 3500 will not be the same ratio as a 4.10 in the 4500 to the ground.
