No you didnt miss anything..... I wasnt directly referring to my setup only referencing the OP's original post concerning 37's on D44's. When I was inquiring about gears several mentioned 5.38's wasnt a good idea even for running 37's if you plan to wheel your JK. If we didnt wheel it then it was recommended to get 5.38's all day long......

I plan on getting that exact match up? Why don't you recommend it?
