It looks like I will be going 4.56. Found a good deal plus it will work just fine for my current 33" and will work great for possible 35" later. I want my power back! It's a weekend vehicle so it won't see a ton of miles and I'll be careful on the skinny petal off-roading as to not blow up my Dana 30.
Thanks for all the knowledge guys.

Are you stick or auto? 4.56's will make a difference between the two. And what yr Jeep?

Even if Jeeps came with 37" tires and 5.43s, "everyone" would argue that they "need" 40" and 6.14 gears.
A lot of people feel they have to modify suspension and gearing no matter what . Cant get the logic to a lot of mall crawlers
with lifted jeeps . Stock jeep will get you where your goin just fine , with out breaking the bank . A few small modifications
is all you really need if that

i had a 2011 with 3.21 gearing and 33s
i have a rubicon with 4.10s an 33s

both got me to the places i wanted to get to, I havent even needed to engage lockers that i have but once

For all you guys running 4.56 and ~34's. Do you have the 3.6 of the 3.8? I have the 3.8 and deciding between 4.56 and 4.88.

Hi Guys, thanks for the quick responses. I have disconnected and ran everything on jacks. Noise is not there. Only under load from decelleration driving.

appreciated your info, I was wondering I have a rubi 2020 and when I drive it in 4Low I can't exceed about 25 miles would it be possible to go over the 25mph in 4low ? if yes what do I need to do.
I appreciate your advice
