Had to cover up a small tear in the driver's seat that my girl stitched up and was pleasantly surprised with all the cargo pouches!!!

 

Ordered High-Lift accessories.

 

Picked up my jeep after having 4:56 gears and front and rear Detroit Truetracs installed! What a difference! All in (gears, master install kits, Truetracs, labor) about $2354.00

 

What size tire are you regearing for? And what kind of driving are you doing to warrant this particular gear ratio?
I've been considering regearing, I installed 35" tires and have lost 3-4 mpg as well as pickup and acceleration, wondering which ratio would be most helpful since this is my DD. On a daily basis most of my driving is highway with the typical rush hour stop and go, don't do much mudding or rock crawling, and most of my offroading is done on unimproved forest roads and beaches back on Long Island. Unsure which gear ratio would help the most, and not sure how to figure it out either. Any advice would help.

Rough country 4"

 

Depending on which motor and transmission as well as axle. My gear guy told me that he would never go numerically higher than 4:56 with a Dana 30. On here everyone has differing opinions but with the 3.8 and coming from the 3:21 gearing these 4:56 seem great. I would look over gear charts posted on this site for your particular application and decide what makes sense to you.

 

What gear ratio were you running before?

 

The lousy stock 3:21 gears

 

I feel your pain. I requested 4.21's from the factory for my '08 X but they only offered that as an option in '07 so they put in 3.73's. Suffice to say I would like to upgrade.

 

My buddy and I replaced my pro comp shocks with bilstein 5100s. Night and day difference, my jeep drives amazing now
