Would I benefit from saving and going with another tuner like a Diablo Sport or something, or is the Pro-Cal going to do primarily the same thing?
Another vote for gears first, and as far as the pro-cal or the diablo, I would stick with just the pro-cal.

The mechanical torque advantage you will gain from the gear swap will far out weigh the increase from the diablo.

Plus your about a $150 or so closer to your lights.

If you feel that you want a tuner down the road you could always sell the pro-cal on here...somebody is always looking for something.

I would do the gears. That is a great price on labor.

Gears for sure & from everything I've been reading the diablo isn't worth the price just go with a procal

I do eventually plan on 37's but that may be a year or so down the road.

Now my question is do I need a master install kit or the minor install? Jeep has 29k, one owner (before me), lift was just now put on it.

You will need to get the master kit with that many miles.

If 37's are only a year or so down the road I would either leave it as is until you get the 37's or gear for 37's now. There is no use in paying to have the work done twice in almost a year.

4.88s are the best mod we've done.
