I think it would depend on how the truck will be used and the loads it will be hauling/pulling. The 3.73 is a good all-around ratio, 4.10 is better for heavier work.

You need to give more info on your truck and what its going to be used for to get a good answer. without this its just a guess. GVW? Towing? auto?
tire size? anything else.
