i have a 13 manual rubi. How did it drive with stock 4.10 gears?
i figure with that transfer case so low, that wouldnt be bad, just wondering about normal driving.

Been on the stock wheel with 37's and 1.5" spaces for about a year without any issues

Unless you live in the mountains, it's completely fine. 6th gear is usable above 55–60 mph, depending on the terrain. I get about 15–16 mpg. In 4-Lo the Rubicon 4:1 ratio in the T-case is perfect for the 37s, especially coming from the stock 32s... 4-Lo is actually usable now for medium speed instead of having to shift up to hi-range and catch up to everyone between trails.

I'll take a video and post it someday.
