What gears for 33?
I have an 08 Sahara 4 door with 3.73's and looking to go to a 33.1" tire.
Looks like 4.10's put me just a head of stock. OR do they make 4.27/4.30's cause 4.56's seem a bit much
Thanks for the replys!
Edit: I have an auto, and my thought was a rubicon d44 with 4.10;s for the front.....just thinking aloud

I have 33's and 3.21's with a 6 speed. Does ok but sucks wind going up a hill. I am going to go with 4.10's and will be running 35's......If I am figuiring correct, that will put me just ahead of stock.....then again I may end up with 4.56's just be safe. I think if you have an auto you may want 4.56's from what I have read.
I will be following this thread......

Hell, if you're replacing your gears anyway, you should go with 4.88's. Folks I've ridden with told me the 4.56's aren't much different than the 4.10's.
Just something to think about.
BTW I'm running 4.10's with my 33's at up to 10,000 feet and it runs okay.

I have a '07 Sahara w/ 4.10's and I'm running 34's. I'm really happy with the gas mileage and power. I have the 6spd as welll and only need to drop to 5th for steep inclines. I think you'd be fine with 4.10's.
Here give this a try....

I am currently running 33" BFG A/Ts with 4.10 Gears, and the manual 6 speed.
My speedo is only 3Km off and everything runs fine, just have to down shift to 5th for uphill.
Ultimatly the choice is up to you, just make sure that you are going to be happy with it. No point in selecting a gear set that may not be what you want.
