Default Is it possible to have a 4.56 in a D36?

Have someone advertising a D36 with a 4.56 gear. He's a bit far away for me to check out without going to buy, but swears up and down that's the gearing. I thought the max gear you could physically fit in a D36 was 3.75, correct?

Sooo he's either wrong in the gearing or wrong in what type of rear (D44) it is, correct?

Not if it's a 2:73 carrier.

I am no expert, however just did a 4.10 in a D44 and that is about it without clearance work and I did a little to be safe.

Based on that, in a D36... doubtful

I have yet to do any work on the d44 in my car but I know a site that will sell you 4.88s for a c4 d44. How much difference do 4.10s make vs I think 3.45s?

I can't say yet, putting car back together. Had it out of the car for possi issue and added the 4.10 gears for giggles.
