whats the best way to fix gearing in gqs when youre running 35s gears are a bit long in low range now with the 35s. Is it easier to change diffs or to change transfer case gears

What ratios do you currently have in the diffs. Mine is 4.1:1 and I don't find it too bad with the 35's on.

If you can get them, 4.625 ratios from a RD28 GQ will make the gearing (and so speed) the same as 4.1 (which is what you probably have) and 31's. The other option is a turbo!!
T"case ratios are not easy and they only change low range.
Cost if buying new aftermarket diff gears or t"case gears would be similar from memory.
