Getting the Wheeling Fever
|
a buddy of mine has a 03 rubicon and he is in the process of getting a 6" suspension lift and 35 inch tires. He was arguing with me that with stock gearing it wouldn't be to doggy, and i disagreed and said he would need to go 4.88 or probably 5.29's, since it is his daily driver i would doubt he would want a huge decrease in power. what do you guys think

I have a 99 with the 4 banger -6" lift and 35's and I never see 5th...I use 4th in town some but 1st through 3rd I am good...he will be fine with the stock gears if he doesnt mind loosing 3rd...if he does then all he needs are 4.88 or 4.56's.

With 35inchers he will want to turn a few MORE rpm at any given speed than whatever came from the factory.. If it came with 30's and a 4:11 yes it will be doggy. Big Jim <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />
