Thank you! That helps me understand it a lot more. Especially the point with the 3 speed having a much wider spread. I had not thought of that before. Sorry if it was a dumb question I just like to fully understand what I'm doing and the why behind it all. I'll be going with 4.56(y) Thanks again!

I figured I'd ask my question here before starting yet another thread on regearing. 2001 Sahara, 4.0L, 32RH 3 speed auto, stock Dana 30/35, 3.07 gears, currently on 33's (yes, it's a dog). I am going to be regearing soon as well as installing a Super 35 and lockers. I plan to go to 35's for...

Thank you! Just found that write up. I’ll read through it a few times and come back with any questions I might have.

This weekend I'm installing an SYE, rear adjustable control arms, and replacing the worn out Rubicon Express rear track bar with a new adjustable one. During my research of how to square and center the axle correctly I found this video: Is this a good way to know you have the axle squared...

I'll ask around to see if anyone I know has one. What should I be looking for it to do? Thanks for your help!

I didn't think about that but that makes sense. I'll keep an eye out for it! If it does come back, do you have any ideas of what could be causing it? would IAC and TPS be a good place to start?

Got my Jeep back from the tranny shop late last week! Cost me just a little over $2k so not too bad. Having the transmission rebuilt also seems to have cured an idle issue I was having on cold starts. Before, It would struggle to maintain idle until after a minute or two and had warmed up a...

Welp... My transmission went out the other day. I have completely lost the use of 3rd gear and reverse is just about gone as well. It was kind of weird that they went out basically right at the same time and without warning. About 8-9 months ago it started slipping when it was cold so I flushed...

I was getting ready to go on an overland trip to Arkansas 7 hours away and needed to get new tires. After the lift, those 31's were looking a little small so I decided to go back to 33's. I know that's probably not a great idea on stock gearing but having new gears and a locker put in is on the...

With the leftover money from selling the full doors I was able to buy a bumper and tire carrier from Smittybilt and some rocksliders from Body Armor 4x4. I went with those rock sliders because they bolt on to the body mounts. I liked that because I already have the Rubicon rocker guards that I...

A few months after the lift was installed I found a guy selling some half doors in white with tan interior door panels exactly matching my Jeep and in excellent condition. I had been looking for a while for a good set of half doors so of course I couldn't pass them up and they were only about 30...

I knew I wanted to do a lift eventually but was waiting until I could save up to do it right. Facebook Marketplace had other plans. I found a guy selling a set of RE 3.5 inch coils for $50! How could I pass that up? So I got the springs and was going to still wait till I had saved up enough to...

Got some ProComp Series 51 Steelies. I think the all black wheels against the white Jeep looks so good! And the 3 3/4" backspacing gives it the perfect stance IMO. This was how she sat for the better part of a year and I was happy with it. It was capable for everything I wanted to do and I...

Wheeling is fun! Cleaning is not.

I also had busted one of my stock fog lights a few months earlier when I didn’t see a stick poking out into a trail and it hit directly on the light. Somehow, no other damage was done. Just gave me an excuse to get some KC lights😀 I actually got some for my birthday so even better! They are so...
