Best Gear size for 33's on a 2012
I am about to re-gear my 2012 Arctic edition and I am wondering what is the best gear size. I have the 3.6 6 speed with 33's and that is probably the biggest size i will go. My Jeep is used as a 3rd vehicle and I take it to Colorado once a year to trail ride. I am thinking 4:10 or 4:56 but would like everyone's opinion before I buy. I did do a search and couldn't find what I was looking for. I am running 3:21's now.

Thanks
Yea that's what I was thinking too, but didn't know if the 4:56 was better. I did't want to go 4:10's and then wish I would have went with the 4:56's..

If you decide on 4.10's, why not see if you can find a pair of rubicon take-off axles? Older ones are 4.10 only, newer years have either 3.73 or 4.10, and you'll get lockers and upgraded front gears as a bonus. Might be worth comparing prices, anyway.
