Default Anybody running 4.10s with 35" tires

I really dont want to have to break into my drive train just yet, but I really would like to run 35x12.50s



Anybody running 4.10s with 35 on? How does it perform?


Thanks in advance

Virtually the same question 10 posts down.

https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/modified-jk-tech-2/35s-what-gears-36834/

But its a good question.

I will be running this setup in about a week ..( parts coming) with an Auto trans too!

I'm afraid i will want to regear after this combo..but I'm gonna run it that way for a while.

It sucks but I'm getting used to it. I wish I could pony up the cash for 4.88s but I have so many things to get, like a dana44 front axle.

Its really not as bad as people make it out to be. In fact I feel like the 4.10s are fine and probably won't regear until its the last mod I can possibly do.

i am running that exact set-up and it is no problem. A little less power but it feels ok still. no OD on the hills anymore but still useable on the flats.Acceleration is still ok to me.

I have no problems with the 4.10's. I've been driving in-town, highway, mountain, snow, and haven't had any complaints.

I have had that set up for a year now, it's not that bad. Like fish says, no overdrive on hills (automatic) but other than that, well worth doing.

That being said, I did finally pop to get 5.13's. I pick it up at ORE tomorrow. Cant wait to feel the difference.

I have been running 35's with 4:10s for months and have had the same experience that fish and Rubimon describe-- really not that bad. With that said, I am considering regearing soon.

I just can't see leaving my 4:10s in. I can't wait to get them changed.
