im on 33x12/50 mickey MTZ's on 15 in rims on the high way i can only hit 65 while im in 6th gear so i drive in 5th most of the time and i hit 75 i drive a stock wrangler x should i get 410's?????? if i buy the gears do i need a new axl? or just a new diff cover?

 

New gears would require (most times) a complete gear overhaul kit depending on the axles you currently have, and what factory ratio is in them. A new diff cover will not be needed.

Contact a dealer with your VIN and get a build sheet. This will tell you the axles and the current gear ratio in YOUR jeep.

Some X's came with 3.73s and some with 4.10s.

Gear choice will depend on how much power you want back, how much mpgs you want, and your future plans for bigger tires.....cause you only want to do it once since your looking @ a min of $1000-2000 to have them done.

Once we know this we can help you more !

I have another link I will post here later tonight when I get home from work that has all the info you could ask for.

 

ok thanks and if i gear one end do i have to gear the other the same?

 

Start in the Axles, Gears & Drivetrain FAQ's right at the top of this section...

Yes. You need to do the front and the rear at the same time.

 

ok im sure i dont have 4.10's and its deff what i need so i need to buy 2 gears 2 pinions is that it?

Expect to pay in the $1000 to $1500 range for parts & labor, out the door.

Around $450 for R&Ps + Install Kit
Around $550 for R&Ps + Overhaul Kit
The rest is labor

If you have 3.21's, you will also want a new front carrier. I 'think' they are $70-$100 or so?

 

i have a stock 07 wrangler x jeep isnt open today so i can ask them my gears but im sure i have 3.21's now this guy is selling a set of dana 44 4.10s out of his 2010 rubicon can i just slap everything into my jk with no problems

and nth thank you for the support post.

 

Excellent work !

This was the same link I was going to post. Probably the best one on the forum.

 

No. You can't fit front rubicon D44 gears in a D30.
And my understanding is that the rear 44's are different enough that you can't use rubi 44 gears in the non-rubi 44 rear. (different spline count? Different gear thickness? Different carrier size for the different sized gears? Dunno)

If you can find 4.10's from an X or Sahara, you could swap them in.

Do you have any plans of going bigger than 33's? You may want to just move up to 4.56's. If you may go to 35's, think about 4.88's.
