Caught the Bug
I've read countless threads. Before I pull the trigger, I want to make sure 4.88's are what I should get instead of 5.13 or 4.56.
I have a 3.6 Rubicon with 4.10s
Currently running "35's" with actually measure 33.75"
It's my daily driver, my highway cruise is 72-73mph on GPS (currently at 2400-ish rpm)
I offroad and also pull a 3000 pound camper.
I want to regear to get some more jump off the line and limit the downshifting while towing.
I'd love to say I'm going with 37's, but I still have 20-30k miles of tread left on my 35's and moving to miami for a couple of years, I really don't need 37's anytime soon, but someday I'll have 'em, which will need more mods to accommodate.
According to the gear charts, there's only 150rpm difference between 4.88 and 5.13. I'm just scared to be stuck with a 3000 rpm highway cruise for the next few years- unless that's fine for the jeep.
