4.11 and 4.10 Gears?
I am interested in a 95 YJ on 33 inch tires. I asked the owner if it has been re-geared. He said that it has a combo of 4.11 and 4.10 gears. He doesn't remember which one is installed where. He said that this gear combination is optimum. I have never heard of mixing the gears. Is he blowing smoke up my arse?

4.10 & 4.11 is a very normal combination. The 0.01 difference makes no fuctional difference. It's normal for front & rear ratios to be off 0.01 due to machining, space vs size, and other issues.

It is an old school trick to get a touch more steering out of the front axle by going a point taller up front. I've run this combo for years, but to be honest I found the advantage negligible.
