Damn they are huge! Screw 35's I'm getting 37's as well when I'm ready!

for 37's you need a dana 44 upfront at least and Hinrichs will probably have to regear to 4.88 since he has the pentastar on a manual tranny :yup:

The 37's are more like 36 (measure from the center of the hub down to the ground and x2),now for 36 if you look at the chart below for manual you will see that with 4.1 at 70 you should be around 2136 rpm (provided you adjusted your tac with a procal).
With 4.88 you should be at 2542,perfect right on the blue.:twocents:

Hmm when I have the money maybe I'll regear...only on the highway for a little on the way to work normally..7 mile drive..so at the moment not important

Either way Congrats ,The Ride looks Awesome. :thumb:

 

[hinrichs]

I think this week and next weekend wheeling will determine if I need them or not, anyone know what the normal cost to have gears installed would be? Also would 4.88 or 5.13 be better?

Around 1200 bucks....5.13 is also good ,bear in mine that on the highway at 80 is gonna be a little loud between the tires and the higher rpm's

 

[hinrichs]

Is that with the price of gears? That seems steep to install something, also hardly ever go about 65

 

[jkmadness]

Wheeling wont be much of an issue .but you will be downshifting often on the highway specially on the uphills

Yes gears included,it;s a lot of work

 

[hinrichs]

I'll have to start looking around for a decent shop to get it done and get prices

 

[OverlanderJK]

1200 isn't bad for gears and install. EVO is the cheapest I've ever seen at $999 so $1200 is a fair price.

This chart was created for the labelled tire size, not the measured tire size.

Also, if you have 37's and the pentastar, I'd go 4.88. I think 5.13 would be too much. Had 5.13s in my 3.8 auto, but the new motor/tranny combo doesn't need that deep of gears...

 

[MTG]

5.13s are perfect with the 37s and the 3.6L.

But that is according to what I have in my jeep, not the gear chart.

This chart was created for the labelled tire size, not the measured tire size.

Then the chart is not very accurate, I have 295/70/17's and according to specs they are 33.3 and on my 2012 auto with 4.56 at 70 I'm at 2785 measure with a digital tach
