Just curious. It's stock now but I plan on giving it more power. Not going over board as it is a DD but def gonna get more. What would be the best rear gear I could get that would give me more of a kick but wouldn't be bad on the highway say I'm cruising at about 65. Thanks

Depends on tire size a lot as well. Usually the deepest ratio you will see with stock size tires is 4.10
 
I'm gonna assume by that you mean the 225/70R15 stock size. In that case I'd say 3:73's would be good. 4:10's if you wanna go for the upper edge of power. Anything more seems silly with tires that small.
 
Ive got 3:73 gears in my 93 and use 31" tires. get good gas mileage and has some good get up and go "feel." wouldn't mind 4.10's if I could find a set for the D35.

Overall 3.73's are your best bet.

what gears you got now?
 
According to my sticker my axle number is 92 which is what, 3.08 if I'm not mistaken?

With 31s and 3.73s it was a nice combo. Now I got 33s and I wish I had 4.10s!! With your size the highest I'd go is 3.73s if you wanna retain DD status.
