I have 321 gearing. And 33" tires. What gearing should I go to. I don't want to steep. But want it steeper then it is now. I don't want my rpms really high on the freeway since I travel alot.

If I were going to pay that kind of money I wouldnt do less than 4.56. I'm going to do 4.88 with 35s and a manual transmission.

Depends on year and transmission.
I have a 2012 jku 6 speed. Im Going with 4.10 I live around a lot of hills, so for me its worth the regear. If I had the 3.8 I would probably go with 4.88.

Yes. But on the freeway my jeep wants to stay in the lower gear and not shift. My gearing is low. I would like steeper but not to steep. Thinking of doing 410. Any advice on that. Would also be. Doing lockers and a Dana 44 in the front.

I have a 2012 jku sport with 6 speed and 3:73 and 33" tires and wouldn't mind 4:10 but think anything more would kill on the highway unless your planning on running bigger tires.
