Anyone running 33'' or 35''. 2.5 lift and 3.21 gears on 2012 JKU 6 spd man ??
I realize the 3.21 gears are no good for 33'' or 35'' tires but I'm trying to figure out if I can run that setup for a while when I decide to lift my new Jeep or wait longer to have $$$ for 4.10 gears... Anyone can share their experiences with a similar setup ??
I use my rig as a daily driver, 90% highway, 10% city, 2-3 offroad outings a years...
Thanks !!!!

I have been running 3.21 gears for a while now with 33" tires and a 2.5 lift. Long hills on the highway are a bit of a PITA with all of the downshifting but, they are doable. Around time it's fine.

It's not a rocket and you loose 6th gear. Can you do it, yes. Will it be fine until you feel like changing gearing, yes.
I drive mine to work and back everyday.
Last weekend I wheeled the piss out of it at Hidden Falls, and I think everyone there would agree, noooooo problem!
Will I go to at least 4.56 when I get around to it? Yup.
