  2. Engines & Drivetrain
    Just upgraded from 33” to 35” on my 3.8L auto JK. Have been reading a lot about regearing for better performance and better MPG. I was thinking about 5.13 but my local shop recomments 4.88. Its my daily, 75% City, 25% highway. Am I good with 4.88 ?
  3. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    OK, so I've done an axle swap putting in a 8.8 with a 4.10 gear and stock limited Slip. I just bought Revolution 4.88's gears and a Detroit locker for the front. When I put the rear end together I just used whatever gear oil I had knowing that I was going to be replacing it in the near future. I...

  5. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I've been reading what feels like hundreds of threads on the forum about gears, but I still can't put a finger on what would be best for me and my TJ so that's why I'm here :) I have a 2003, 4.0L, 4 speed automatic (don't pick on me), on 35x12.5 tires. I have the stock Dana 30 front and 35...
  6. JK Wrangler Technical Forum
    So, I'm getting 2011 6-speed re-geared this week to 4.88 (I'm rolling on 35" BFG KM2). A group I'm riding with is doing a run this weekend up near Tahoe. I was curious if I should still go on the snow run after getting re-geared? I've read some stuff about breaking in the gears. I was...

    Hey folks, just got back in the country and I want to get some work done on my Jeep. Spent about two weeks thinking of upgrades (MDS ignition, Headers, exhaust, etc) Until I settled on the two most obvious things: Gear change and new tires. i figure all the small stuff can wait until after i get...
  8. Jeep Builds
    So I always wanted a Jeep Wrangler and recently had an opportunity to pickup a 1997 TJ for cheap. Being that it is an SE with 4cyl and auto trans dana 30 and 35 cheap is really all it was worth anyway:laugh: But now i had a platform to start with and with our first child just being born I will...
  9. XJ Cherokee Technical Forum
    Hey guys... I picked up an 8.8 out of a 2000 explorer to swap with my stock dana 35 and I have 35 inch tires and a lift kit waiting to be bolted on. I knew that I would have to re-gear from the stock 3.55s and based on my research 4.88s would be the closest to stock with the 35s. My problem is...

    I am a new jeep owner, and new to 4 wheelin'. My keep has the 4.0L with 4.5" suspension lift, 1" body lift and 35" Super Swampers. The previous owner told me that it has a Ford 8.8 rear end with 4.10 gears (I think...I lift the rear end and rotated the tires to estimate the ratio. Both tires...
  11. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    Ok before i get flamed, I have searched and searched and cannot find my answer, most people that I see on the regearing threads have 5speeds and that DOES not apply to me. I have 33" tires on my jeep and was wondering the best all around gears for it. Where I can have better highway usage of...
  12. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I have 3.73s, but want to regear to 4.88s. A guy as a '99 TJ D30 with 4.88s in it now. He's asking for $250, just looking for some affirmation that this would be a good idea. I could keep my D30 for spare shafts/parts, or sell it. Obviously I still have to regear the rear... Think it's a...

    My friend has a set of 4:88s in a box from a 2008 Wrangler. I was wondering if they would work in my 2004 Wrangler? It would help me lug around the 35s i have on it and there coming reasonably cheap. Thank You ahead of time.

    I'm upgrading to an 8.8 axle and putting 35s on my tj and I've read alot about gear ratios and I'm trying to figure out which one would be best for me 4.56 or 4.88. My jeep is my daily driver and I do a lot of highway driving but I also like to have fun out in the woods so which one would be...
