Seeking Advice: Gears now or wait?

Looking for advice if I should pull the trigger or wait.

Situation: Rubicon JKU moving from 33" to 35". I've bought C Gussets from EVO and would like to install them. However looking at the instructions it appears I'll have to remove a number of parts from the axle to do so. If I'm going that far, should I just buy new gears (4.88) and install them at the same time.

Or should I just install the c gussets and wait to do the gears.

Thx in advance.

What does it say you'll have to remove? The only thing I can think is ball joints and even then it's optional.

As mentioned the most you really need to remove is the tires so you have room to work with.

My plan to regear and weld gussets at the same time simply because same guy will do it for me. I don't see a reason to remove tires twice.
In regards to removing parts most guys I know did not.
Good luck

The 4.10 gearing is fine with 35's, but to each there own. It's crazy expensive to re gear around here... Like $2600 expensive!
