I also have a 10 bolt Nodular rear sitting here ready to install...now I'm concerned that I'll regret changing to a 3:55 from a 2:78 the first time I drive any distance on the interstate. Also, I have a feeling that I'll be opening a can of worms of the u-joint variety when I go from an 'O' type rear to a 10 bolt BOP rear.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained, eh?

Are you running 15" tires? If so, 3.55 shouldn't be bad unless you want to cruise at 80 mph.
I have 3.90 gear now; running 15" BFG's. I wouldn't want to take a long interstate trip with it, but it's not ridiculous. I have a spare set of 3.55's in the garage that I'll eventually install.
