I was thinking the same thing.
I've been running 4.10's and 35's w/ TH350 for 10 years. I tow heavy loads GCVW exceeding 13,000lbs, and only wish I was lower geared when driving offroad. I would love to have overdrive for those longer trips when iIm unloaded and a lower 1st to get out of the hole quicker.
