I finally got some money to regear.

I'm thinking to get EVO regear special.

Also I'm thinking to get one of stock dana 30 reinforcement parts from EVO which is c2 or magnum sleeve.

So which one i can get more reinforce to my dana30?

C gussets for sure. Without knowing what tires you plan on running I cant really say what gears to go with.

If your jeep is 2007-20011 i would go 4.88 if its a 2012-2013 i would stay stock or go 4.10.

Yes. I would look in to Lube Lockers instead of RTV to seal them on. It's a lot less messy and worth the money in my mind.

Imo I think the lube lockers are a waste of money. Rtv is cheap. Also the arb cover can be added. I've had one for approx 4 years. Mine are black now. Painted em with rattle can.

Someone correct me if Im wrong, but from what I have read, once you go too high gear wise, you start losing strength.

The ring and pinion get smaller yes. But on a D30 you are fine with 4.88's. 5.13's is pushing it but on a rubi D44 5.13's are fine.

So a D30 would be ok with 4.56s and 35" tires? Im looking to upgrade to 35" tires down the road when my 33s wear out, and would like to plan ahead for the gears.

I have 35s and am doing 4.88 on my 2010. According to the spec sheet from 4ws.com that us the size to go with fit 35s. Also their kits are hard to beat on the price from my research... Buy i am having issues with the gear sets.. But that's isn't their fault. And they are taking care of me.

Yes you can add the ARB or any other cover. You dont need a locker to add them, they are just that brands HD cover

I actually know the guy who owns the company and he is a great guy and its a 100% made in the USA company. Its mess free and easy to install. That being said, its a bit expensive and I would just use sealant. Its cheap and a single tube can be used quite a few times.

since you and the OP both have a 2012 JK then yes 4.56's would be great for your uses if you never plan on going over 35's. in a 2012 4.88 and 35's would give you great torque, but you would lose a little bit of highway MPG with the higher RPM's. I have a ton more power in my current factory 4.10's in my 2013 JKU with 35's than 3.73's in my 2007 JKU with stock tires.

I have 5.13s on my non rubi and if ur gonna do it yourself I'd say that's the way to go cuz 5.13's are for 37's if u run a 35's now one day you'll want 37's and this way u won't have to regear again, if u want bigger than 37's gears will be one of ur last worries
