Re-gear worth it for 35" on Rubi 4.10?

[ITLL GO]

Sorry for the newbie question but I see somebody mentioned a gear chart ? can somebody post a link to it ? i'd be looking to regear as well within 1-2 months tops, and I see the recommendation for 35's and the 3.6 is now 4.88 ? i thought this was for the 3.8 engine ? or maybe I read in other forums the recommendation for 35's were 4.56 ??, I have a 13 Sport with the 3.21's, and i'll be adding rear locker/front TT, and I was thinking 4.56's because I have 33's (bought them last month, so it'll be at least 3 years before I switch tires), I have no plans for anything bigger than 35's anyways, but i'll be adding steel to protect belly/rocker panels, bumpers, winch etc, etc, given the extra weight, I thought 4.56's were going to be ideal in this platform?

From what i can tell, id say you would be doing great with 4.56. The sport gearing is a little sluggish with 33's on them. At least, that's what i remember with a friends Sarah. Refer to the chart above. Good info!

I have had 37s on for almost a month now with the 4.10s. I have a manual transmission though. It's not terrible for city driving and most of my commute is highway. 6th gear is pretty much useless though. I do plan on getting a regear to 5.13 but just haven't had the cash.

37s/4.10s/auto with the same opinion, it's not that bad. I still have plenty of power to merge into traffic and pass, Houston is flat though. Downshifting on the highway with hills is really my only gripe.

BTW, nice looking rig!

Thanks guys. I have yet to drive up hills or into the mountains with the 37s but it was pretty bad with 35s lol. This could be interesting....

4.10's with 37s! What's that like when climbing a steep hill or rock crawling?

Keep in mind that the tire size will be based on actual measurement rather than the advertised size in the side wall of the tire...

Really? I thought you had to look at the side wall number and not the actual measurement, maybe I read that article wrong.
