4.56 with the 3.6 is good and will keep the revs down at highway speeds. If you do a lot of crawling 4.88 would help.

Would 5.13 be too much?

no need for 5:13 on a 2012 or newer jk unless your going up larger then 37's. I run 4:88 with 37's and it's great off-road. Rpm's are a little high on the highway but not to bad.

Ok cool thank you what's the logic behind it though 4.88 5.13 5.38 , 35 37 40 what would be the difference or the benefits of the ratios?

Daily driver and 37"s? I hope you planning on upgrading to Dana 60s front and rear with the regear.

I don't know how people can recommend a gear ratio without knowing if you wheel, what terrain you wheel, how you wheel, which t-case you have, what daily driver means to you or what the speed limits are in your area?
