I just joined about a month ago. I have a 2014 JKU with automatic tranny. I just put a 6" long arm lift, with 37's. Aftermarket front and rear bumper with a winch. My next upgrade will be gears just trying to figure out if I want to go with 4.88 or 5.13s, any help would be much appreciated. Looking forward to meeting new people and learning new things.

Jeep is looking good Steve, I just went to 4.88 with 35's and love it. Plenty of power has returned. Was torn between 4.56 and 4.88. So happy I went with 4.88! so if u want the extra power back I'd go with 5.13, especially that's if its not your daily driver

Thanks Ben I'm thinking the 5.13 would be best and no it's not my daily ride. You get that new pro rock 44 in yet? We need to get that thing out. Next month we are doing a club run up bronco canyon by VC, you should join us.
 
Welcome neighbor. I have been at all of those places in those photos as they are not too far from me. Let me know if you ever want to wheel, or just have a beverage. I also wheel a 2014 JKUR on 37's. I will look for you out on the road and trail.

Thanks Gary, I'm always looking for other people to wheel with then have an adult beverage, or just have a beverage,
either way I don't care. I live in Dayton, where are you?

No, I want to keep the stock parts clean for resale. Pretty park the Jeep in he backyard, then drive down to SoCal in May. The axles and wheels will have less than 1,000 of miles on them.

I am excited also. Parts have already been ordered. When I get back, I'll share some photos.

I'll take dibs on your rear DS and rear lower control arms (assuming you are replacing both). :)

Oh and welcome to the OP. :standing wave:
