that explains it now! i think i may be able to do it. and when i go to instal my KC lights on windsheild how do i hook them up do you happen to know?

 

i hear ya. and does everything ccome in the box for what i need and what will be safe and not short?

 

That's smart! When I get down all the basic I will start that to make life much easier!

 

Hey bud,

You should really do some more research before you "pull the trigger". 35's are about as big as you want to go unless your willing to beef up your axles. You can do this but know that everything will wear out really fast. If you leave the factory gears you will more than likely chew them up (search the forum for guys who've done this).

With bigger tires you have more static weight that needs to be moved by the tranny. being under geared is going to work your engine over and build up a lot of heat in the tranny too. So you could possible blow out a gear in the tranny in addition to chewing up the diff. There wont be anyone on this forum that would say not to regear if your rockin 37's. even at that you will wear out your ball joints in no time.


You should ask around the forum more before you do this. find out what people have had issues with and make a smart decision. Repairs can get expensive quick.

 

i hear ya on that as well. i have dana 44's front and rear. but it would only be a few months i would run this set up until i got the $$ for regearing??

 

Its not cheap to regear. Thats one thing that i'm not looking forward to. I'm almost thinking of running 35's and while i wear them out, build a front and rear axle as a project to support bigger tires.

Best of luck on the setup!!!

 

to cut to the chase!!! with my 2010 rubicon with dana 44 front and rear, and 4:10 gears, will i be able to use this jeep as a DD on 37's and some light wheeling around the JErsey Trails about 1-2 times a month without regearingg??

 

I don't know about the 4.10s but I'm running with 5.38s and 37s on 2010 rubicon as a DD and it drives great. Plenty of power. Fwiw, I think I avg. around 11ish mpg. Forgot to mention its a 6spd manual.

 

thats about the MPG i am getting right now! i think i can be able to handle the 4:10's for now it is no highway and just to the beach and around our local town. i cna last for a few months im thinking????

 

thats not bad at all. i will superchip it and i have the corsa exhaust wich helps i can feel it for sure. I think i would be just fine in the long run.
