What is the biggest (lowest ratio) gear set that will go into an 8" rear end? Thank you in advance!

I've never seen or heard of a 4.69 for an 8" Ford. I have a 3.50, 3.80, 4.10 and a 4.62. I am currently running the 4.10 and Auburn locker in mine.

Thank you. Sure I will have more questions. My new car (1976 runabout) will be delivered tomorrow AM.
