Gear Ratio Question
What is the best gear ratio I should run on my 2009 JK Rubicon.
37', 13.50, 18 Nitto Mud Terrain
Dana 44's
2.5 Skyjacker Suspension lift
Auto Transmission
Do you think i can safely run on the stock 4.10 gears? I do have my computer set properly for the tires and gears with the AEV procal module as well.
Thanks,
Brad

From an on-road performance perspective, 5.38's all the way. As Jayhawk mentioned, the only concern will be your opinion on the strength. Much more of an issue for the d30 than the d44.
