So I have a 99 TJ 3 speed auto. 2.5L with 4:56 gears. D30 front D35 rear. Want to go to 35” tires.
Not a daily driver. It is mostly in garage and some highway driving with offroad trips few times a year.
Will i be able to with this gear ratio?
Do I need to upgrade the axle shafts?

thoughts please.
Thanks!

I got a 91 YJ with the 2.5 and 5 speed running 4.88s and 35s. It ain’t flyin down the highway by any means but it does ok. Don’t think I’d go any lower with those axles as the pinons are gonna be microscopic
