TJ, You buy the gears wherever you like (I used Bryan @ 4wd.com) make sure you have BOTH master kits. I cannot stress how good the guys are at Milford Jeep.
Zen glad it all worked out and my advice helped you out! My flashpaq I had to re-register and download the updater. (Once you flash just wait on how well the Jeep behaves after that ... makes the gear swap coplete.)
It does take a while when hooked up to the PC so coffee , beer , cigs , whatever on standby is good and is the only drawback of the superchips brand ... S L O W software upgrade , equally as so flashing the Jeep too but options and levels are the best out there.

I would let ZEN chime in on his findings. He has a 6 speed and his numbers will help you out. If you stay stock rubber then yeah 4:56 but truthfully that is not a radical departure from 3:73's. If you are even thinking of slightly larger tires then 4:88 is a no brainer as you do not want to gear up twice. The JK with its anemic engine output that is coupled with the WORST transmission ratios and relatively heavy starting weight = unfair power to weight ratios. Now add our wicked svelt and stealthy aerodynamics and you are essentially trying to drive a sheet of 3/4" cement wallboard into a headwind using 30 Roman gladiators as power.

I think my wife and I are heading in the same direction. We have a 2-door Sport that she uses as a daily driver. On the weekends I grab the keys whenever I can. When it comes time to replace my car, I can't think of anything other than a JKU.
been in the jeep game alone time,, everyting from a 67' to 13' hope to see you all around sometime.

Introduction....
Hey everyone, just wanted to say hello. Im Scott and I live in Seymour, CT. Picked up my '13 10th Anniversary JKUR about two weeks ago. As soon as I got home, I took the hard top off and put the soft top on. Top has been down ever since! Heres a pic from the day I brought her home in the rain:
Mods so far are:
3.5" AEV lift
35x12.5x17 Goodyear MTR's on 17X8.5 AEV Savegre wheels(Black)
AEV Rear tire carrier in stock 10A bumper
Next up are some smaller items that I picked up, like the Mopar Kicker sub upgrade and some grab handles to help with getting in! Love the JKUR, rides great and cant wait to meet up with some of you guys soon! Great forum, looking forward to some good times!

Hi everyone! I've been lurking on here for a while since I've kept my Jeep stock (more or less) and it's my daily driver so I can't afford to break it 
However I can only be stock so long and I'm excited for a change. This past weekend I did a cat-back and a Tuffy hood lock. Why the hood lock you ask? Because this coming weekend my Ripp kit goes in It's still going to be a daily driver but I hope to make it out to more events/meets/etc... now that my Jeep will at least be a little interesting. Then next year when my stock tires finally wear out I'll do a little lift and 35s and will be able to do more offroad.
So if anyone is driving around CT and notices a white 2dr Rubicon with something strange in the grill in the near future that'd be me
