My next mod with most likely be gears. My question.... is there a big differance between brands of gears? If so,, what seems to be the best?
I will be going 4:88 or 5:13's

Not really a huge difference between all the major brands. It's mostly price.

Strange, Superior, Yukon, Motive... any one of these will do.

Who's installing them?

Don't for get Dana.

Btw 5.13's what size tire you planning to run 38-39?

What gears do you have now?
Auto or manual?

I have 35's going on tomorrow afternoon.... I have a auto with 3:73's.
I know I'm going to feel the growing pains and will want to change gears soon.

I love my 5.13s with my 33's. I have a 4 banger tho. Stick to 4.88's you will never look back. I also believe you can't go 5.13's since you have a dana 30 front correct?

Yeah, they have both the D30 and D44 combo just like the TJ. The 30 is different than the TJ/XJ/ZJ D30 however.

My vote would either be for Yukon or Dana Spicer gears. Dana gears seem to setup the absolute best in all of my experiences.
