Coreect me if I'm wrong guys but doesn't a 3.55 rear end mean that the
rear end is geared so that for every 3.55 turns of the drive shaft the
wheels turn once, and for a 3.9 it would be 3.9 turns of driveshaft for
one turn of wheels, a higher number gives you less turns of wheels and
thus less speed but it gives you more pulling power.
