What I'm about to ask is probably the most asked, and beat up question of them all, and I feel like a shmuck asking. :banghead:
Gearing.
I've read forum, after forum, after forum, and page after page of info, looked at 3 gearing charts, and I am still waffling real bad between my choices.
I'm re-gearing a 09 JK, Manual 6-speed with 3.21's, and the largest tire I'm going to have on there sits 32.5" mounted (BFG KM2 255/80/17). I cannot for the life of me decide between 4.10 and 4.56. For what I do, I'm not sure that I need something as deep as the 4.56, but I've read that difference between 3.21 and 4.10 isn't impressive either.
I only drive the jeep on the weekends, since I have a company vehicle, and I drive 1-3.5 hours to get to my camp/fishing/4x4 areas. The trails I take are anything from tame fire roads to nasty black diamond switchbacks covered in loose rock and 2-5' boulders. I'm MORE than impressed with the Jeep in 4 low, but I am not impressed with it on the highway or in town. I'm really looking for the best of both worlds here guys.
Can I get a seat of the pants reaction from you guys with similar setups?
Thanks everyone, and sorry for the repeat question. :surrender:
