How good is revolution, I contacted revolution for an estimate, I went from 29" to 33" and I told him I was going to do 37" in a year. The guy told me to do 4.88. I heard a lot of people saying 5.13 for 37".

Most people will do 5.13 gears, but you can do 4.88 as well you just won't have a much pulling power. For the rubicon like mine when I go to a 35" Tire a 4.88 gearing will keep it in about the same power ratio.

I have 4.88s and while I find them great for 35s I'd definitely do 5.13s with 37s.

If you have a D30 front you should know that the 5.13 inside will have very small and weak teeth.

They're all pretty similarly made. Just don't go with a Chinese knockoff. Here's some common brands: Yukon, Revolution, Nitro, Spicer, Alloy.

I have seen several bad reviews on nitro involving broken gears and them not wanting to warranty them and that was after their recommended shop done the install.

5.13 is a better ratio to run with 37's but as MR.Ty said, if you've got a Dana 30 up front, your pinion will be very small. 4.88 will be a safer bet.
