Shift points are determined by where you make your power, not by what rear gear you have.

I would think you'd want to adjust them with gears (I'm asking) since it may normally shift at a certain mph with 2.73's, for instance, you'd probably want to move that down a bit if you switch to 3.42's. Reason being that you'd be at a higher rpm at the same mph with the new gears. Could get annoying. Or am I off in left field here?
