I am looking to regear and was wondering for those who have experience with this setup how does the jeep perform. Specifically with the 3.6l engine

Going to 4.10s would be a waste, you may notice a little power increase if you are coming from the 3.21s but you probably won't feel any difference if you are coming from 3.73. I suggest going to a ratio like 4.88s (4.56 if you want to TRY to maintain your MPGs).
I have a set of axles I acquired from a buddy. 4.10's, chromoly shafts, synergy gussets and ball joints. So I guess I was just wondering how performance would be compared to my stock 3.21 gears. Also, looking at this chart it looks like I'd get full time O/D back? Oh, and I'll never go bigger than 35's. No interest in 37's or need.
Ah that makes a little more sense. You will probably get use of OD on flat roads, but it will still most likely kick off on hills with 35s. Don't forget a programmer to adjust your shift points to compensate for the new axle gear ratio.
Have you run this setup? 3.6l, 4.10's and 35's?

Not this setup but I have run 37's with a 3.6L and 4.10's and while it wasn't anything to write home about, it was surprisingly doable. I have no doubts that 35's would have been even more so.
My JK8 has 3.21's. On 35's it still hauls ass.
The weight lost helped dramatically. So much that I thought it was regeared.
I still want to regear it. But not until I throw a new front axle in.

I was wanting to ask you how much it weighed compared to a stock 4dr but it obviously ways a significant amount less. Thanks for answering a question I never got to ask you lol
You're getting a Tera30 right?

More or less in the same boat as the OP. (not trying to hijack)
I had 3.21's with 33's and it was doable but I had no power off-road or driving through deep snow. Whilst on deployment I had 4.10's w/ an LSD installed thinking I would never go to 35's. Now all I can think about are getting 35's and I'm a little worried about having 35's w/ 4.10's and having it feel like it did when I had 3.21's w/ 33's but it wouldn't feel nearly the same, correct?
According to the chart (3.6L Manual, 2door) I was in deep in the yellow with the 3.21's w/ 33's (actual height 32) and 4.10's w/ 35's (actual height around 34) would put me right in the middle of the green. So, I should be good, right?
I've got a 2014 JKUR 6 spd. I ran with the stock 4.10's and 35's and it was doable but I was screaming up mountain passes in 3rd and 6th gear was only useable if it was flat. I regeared to 5.13 since I was getting 37's and I really wish I had done gears sooner. I would look into 4.56 or 4.88 honestly. If you're flat land the 4.56 would be good and if you're in the mountains 4.88. Hope that helps
