Personally, I wouldn't recommend a 3.07 with a 700R4. Just too high of a gear in my opinion, unless you want to cruise in the mid-80's on the highway. 3.73 was standard for most 1/2 tons that came with 700R4s in later years and that is a very streetable combo. Would be good to know what you currently have and then we can help you from there. Would also like to know your planned tire diameter.
