Hey everyone I have done my lift Fabtech 3" and riding on 35s. I am using this jeep as my everyday driver and I am planning on throwing the body armor front bumper and winch on and I'm curious to find out what gearing would be best to get before I put those things on. There is already a difference in my speed its off by 5 mph and sluggish on the parkway. I'm not worried about top end I have a jeep keep that in mind lol.

 

With the weight of the body armor and bumper, I personally would go with 5.13 gearing. I ran that on my '08 with 35s and did well....

 

You need a Procal to fix your speedo.

 

Get a Procal first, then regear with 4:88's. A lot of guys will say 5:13's but I think thats to much gear for a daily driver. Just my opinion.

 

Stick or automatic? I would go 4.88's with a stick (works great), and probably 5.13's with the auto, but for a DD, 4.88's might be fine and the gears are stronger than 5.13's.

 

Yea I have a 6 speed manual. Yea it's my daily beast. What's that do that part before I get the gearing?

 

I was thinking 4.88 but I wanted to make sure and what gearing brands are good to invest in?

 

I'm going with nitro! I've heard nothing but good things about them and was told they are comparable to yukons but I've read yukons are more flexible and not for a daily driver.

 

I'm running 4.88's on 35's with a 6-speed manual. Yukons. 4 years, no problems, happy with results, as long as I've got the 4:1 for crawling.

 

What? Flexible.........
