Default gear change effect on 4-Lo

I'm about to regear from 3.21 to 4.88, how much is this going to slow me down in first gear in 4 lo? (Manual transmission)

well let's see... 3.21 / 4.88 = ~66%, so you'll be going slower with the new gears assuming your tires are the same size before and after - if you were doing 12mph before, you'll be doing about 8mph after.
