The 700r4 is a OK trans, it is weak compared to a TH400 but I like mine and it has OD. I will be running 4.88's with 35's, I was going to go 5.13's then I thought 4.56's so I just split them in the middle and went with 4.88's, I think it will be fine on the road plus it will be alot easier on the tranny and every thing else, I plan to go to a 38" tire in the future so I want to have plenty of gears when I get them. 
i have a 400 trans,i'm with you i don't need to beat down the engine and trans,but if i'm lugging the engine thats not good either.i guess thats why i like manuals.
Yup 700 with OD. I have a 14 with 4.10s and will be picking up a 8 lug 1oblt next week with 4.10's. Anything can be better then my 3.73's!!!

easiest way is to jack up one side and spin the tire 2 times and count how many times the dshaft spins.
Put a peice of blue or red tape on one side of the pinion or dshaft its really easy to see.
