So I have a 6 speed jk sport. I'm about to regear my jeep just wondering if 4:56 or 4:88 gear is better for perfomance and gas mileage.

 

What tires and what size? what year is the jeep?

 

It's a 2010 and it will have 35's within the month

 

Yesterday I just finished up doing my gear swap and I went with 5.13's on my 09 which is equivalent to 4.88's on your auto. I'm running on 35" Duratracs which actually measure in at 33.5". I cannot emphasize how well my Jeep drives. I've only been able to drive it about 150kms so far but the difference from 3.73 to 5.13 has made my Jeep feel like a completely different vehicle to drive. It's such a shame that I waited nearly 2 years to do a gear swap

 

Im also looking to regear... im running 35s and i feel like i have no torque at low rpms also wat gears would i need to make it feel like i have the same amount of torque as i did with stock tires and no mods?

 

Stuck to the top of this modified area are some FAQ's. Open them, scroll down to the drivetrain section, and plug some numbers into the chart. You will need your current gear ratio, and use actual measured tire not, not mfg spec. Around 2500 rpm is considered a good place to be for freeway driving, depending on other factors.
