  It seems as if Dick may have answered the question, but there does
seem to be many different opinions out there so I'll ask anyway.
  When I built my rear end I had the option of using either the 3.89 or
the 4.22. I have the OD and Smitty recommended that I use the 4.22, as
it came from the factory. So I did.
  Did I make a mistake here? From the driving impressions of those who
have the 3.89/OD setup it seems as if I'm losing a bit of performance.
Yet Dick says I'll ruin my car if I DON'T use the 4.22. Who is right?
Or is there no right answer and this is just a matter of personal
preference?
