Finding the Right Gear Ratio

Nov/060

Regearing your JK will be beneficial once it is lifted with some bigger meats. Here are our recommendations for a ratio:
stock-33″ Tires: 4.10 (stock)
35″ Tires: 4.56
37-38″ Tires: 4.88
40″ Tires: 5.13
These ratios will keep you close to the same RPMs as a stock JK with 32 inch tires and 4.10 gears. We know that not all JKs come with that combination, but many do come with something close to that and it works well. Also, you will usually want to gear a little aggressive to help make up for the extra rotational mass of larger tires.
