New guy question

[RobG]

Recently bought a 67 Scout 800 that I've completely torn down to repair. When I went into the differentials I found broken ring gear teeth on the front differential. I've got a Dana 27 in the front and a Dana 44 in the back with 4.27 gears. I have two questions. What ratio can I go to without changing the carriers on both axles to a more street worthy ratio, and who makes ring and pinion gears for the Dana 27? I am thinking something in the neighborhood of 3.72 ratio.

Thanks
