Poll Pick my gears!
OK people. I have been trying to make a decision on what gears to use in my Jeep. I have read, read, read, and read some more. I thought I had it narrowed down to 4:88's but now am questioning myself again. So with that said, I am leaving it up to you all. There will be 4 options with the poll. 4:88's, 5:13's with install kits or 4:88's, 5:13's without install kits. Keep in mind I only have 300 miles on it. This will be up for 7 days. After that I place my order. Feel free to post on why you picked which one you did.
I will list my specs below:
2011 Unlimited Rubicon
6 Speed
Hardtop
OME 2" Heavy Kit
Will be running 35's on some sort of 17x9 wheel if I can ever find the ones I want in stock
Front and rear Mopar bumpers with spare tire carrier and winch
Probably never do much if any towing
Will see a few weekends per month off road
May actually drive the Jeep 150 miles or so per week if that. (Have a work car)

Unless you are going to go bigger than 35s I would not waste the money on gears. With the 6spd and the 4.10 rubi gears you are all set. I have been in a rubi running 35s with the 6spd and it was nice. The rpms on the highway were in just the right place. In fact his rpms were where mine were at running 32s with my 3.73s. I now have 35s and sure wish I had the 4.10 under mine.
