i have 35's already and have been running 4.10's for a while with them and am finally fed up. i need some new gears. i just dont know if i shoud go with 4.88's or 5.13's. i am looking for some first hand experience only. i have ready lots on both set ups with 35's and now i just want some first hand experience. i have a 4.0 auto '04 and dont plan on going bigger than 35's. it is my dd and will be for at least the next 4 years. what is your experience?

As far as I know 5.13's aren't made for your front diff.

Yep, 4.88 is deepest for the standard lo-pinion D35 (5.13s are for the hi-pinion TTB axle).
