4.0 Low gear set?

It seems like everyone is running the 4.7 low gear set in their Tcases. Does anyone run the 4.0 gearset? After doing some math in RPMs i think the 4.7 will be too low for me, and i do not want to do dual cases. I am curious to know peoples experience with the 4.0 gear conversion.

If you don't have any use for the stock low gearing I think it would be a worthwhile upgrade. Personally - I think the ultimate dual is the way to go. Stock low gearing in the front case and 4.0 or 4.7 in the rear case. Then you have an amazing variety of gear ratios to choose from.

that is the setup i have, except the front case is just a range box, so i have the 4:1 in it. That way i have 4lo on the stock gears, and than i can hit the front lever and have lo/lo.
