I've got a 07' Sahara unlimited and I have stock gears with 35's and a 4' lift. I don't rock climb in it. Every once in awhile I put it in the mud and I have a hunting lease that I ride around. But mostly it's a mall crawler. I notice at 65mph or above it won't start on cruise as in it slows down then speeds back up. What's a remedy for this? I heard/read something about driving with overdrive off. And would a flashpaq or a procal help any? Thanks.

Re- gearing will fix that. I had 35's, 4 inch lift and 3:73's. I couldn't use cruise control because it was constantly downshifting out of overdrive to keep the speed up. I have 4:88's now and use cruise control all the time. No programmer can fix the lack of torque to the tires, only gears.

Did you calibrate the tires to your speedometer?

What's the typical cost for re-gearing? And no I haven't done anything to calibrate the speedometer for the tire size.

You could look the info up for re-gearing, as
it depends on what gears you want and into
what type of differential they are going into...

But I believe the gears,(rack&pinion) go for
about $200 each. For a matched set your
looking at $400 and change, if your doing
the swap yourself.
If Your going through a shop, it'll depend
on who you go to and how knowledgeable
they are at doing that type of work.
