agreed, but is it really worth all that money to regear for 33s? It runs 32s alright, could use a little more power but those were only 255wide not 285 which the 33s are.... and 4.10s i can only use the one for the rear since the dana 30 is different from rubicon front axle...
is it worth it to regear for 33s if you have 3.21s 6sp? maybe I just cant use my 6th gear anymore.. sadly

Are you upgrading to Rubi axles as well? If so, they will have 4.10's, and should be a great improvement from your stock 3.21's.
Or are you confused about re-gearing in general? Or am I confused?
(people with 35's or bigger will talk about not using 6th. I haven't seen anyone with 33's saying it. As has been mentioned several times, you're only looking at a 1" increase...)

I have 33s and the 4.10 gears and sure wouldn't want to go any higher (lower, whatever!). I have the Hypertech and its performance boost was marginal, at best. I'm skeptical that any chip/programmer is going to have a significant increase. The reason can be seen if you take a look at those curves they all provide: The 5-6A% improvement is at high torque--which occurs at high rpm's. Which means that it provides just what I say: A marginal improvement at typical highway speeds in sixth gear.

i got my superchip from dave at northridge4x4 he he did free 2day shipping and it was 309 which is the cheapest by far i have seen it for... i run on the 87 setting and it really helps... plus fixes speedo and miles driven ect... its just not worth regearin at 33's when in the back of ur mind u KNOW ur gonna go bigger eventually (dont kid yourself)!!!!!!!!!

Or Ill wanna buy a rubi!
Which is what I'll probably end up doing later down the road hopefullybut regear for 33s? and 4.10s from rubis only work on back axle right because the front one is different and it wouldnt be worth that since it doesnt have the lockers or the upgraded axle in the front... might as well save money for a rubi?
