Hi guys, I know this has been discussed a ton, and i've read over many of the threads & charts but I wanted to get a fresh opinion as i'm not sure what direction to go. Hoping I can get some pro input.
I have a 4.0, stock 3.07 gears, 32rh auto, 33" tires. Currently has a ARB locker in the front (compressor broken), OEM Trac-Lock in the rear.
Stock Dana 30 and Dana 35.
I've decided I need to regear, as I can't get over 40-45 going uphill.
I know i'm going to need to replace the ARB and the trac-lock, and i'm needing to decide which gears to go with.
The Jeep is used for some light rock crawling, general off road use, snow, and will be road driven several hours to it's off-road destinations. I have no desire to go to anything beyond a 33" tire.
I'm thinking that 4.10s should provide me with the road performance I need, while not killing my fuel economy too much?
I'd also like to either put an eaton e-locker in the front or rear, and an eaton true-trac in the other.
Doing a Super 35 "discovery" series from Revolution isn't terribly expensive and i'd be open to doing that as well.
I've priced out the options from Revolution Gear, and talked with a local installer (Who prefers Sierra gears...? But will do Revolution)
So with that in mind, are 4.10s sufficient, and would a locker in the front or rear be more effective for my scenario?
Thanks!
