Are there any specific mods that must be done to the jeep prior to adding a RIPP Supercharge?

Example: gears.....

Short answer.... NO, none needed.

The kit will have everything you need. Any other mod is at your discretion.

I love the jeep for what it is so with that said would u suggest I regear to 5.13.

Also does RIPP basically mess things up if I wanted to do hard off roading?

Lastly will a RIPP work with 5.13?

Im running a RIPP, 5.13's and 37" tires. Its a good combo. I have no issues on the highway. The RIPP has no adverse effects off road, if anything it makes it better.

13-14 mpg just about everywhere. Of course if I could make myself baby it I may could pick up more mpg. You find yourself pushing the skinny a little harder when you have the RIPP.
