Hello everybody, so I have a 2001 4cyl manual that i want to lift 2" and put 32s on. I'm not planning on running anything bigger than that because I only have a D35 in the back... But my question is what is the best gear ratio for that setup?

regearing for 32's is definitely not a waste of money.

i have 3.07's with the 6 cyl and it sucks. i would regear in a heartbeat...im sure the 4cyl can't be any better. it is terrible on the highway.

4.88's for 32's may be a tad low but for a 4cyl i'd probably go with them anyway...thats just me though...4.56 would be good too

Your TJ already has 4.11 and there's not enough difference between that ratio and 4.56 to warrant the $1100 or so it'll cost to regear to 4.56. For 33" tires, 4.88 is ideal for the four-banger engine but I'd just leave things as they are with 32" tires and wait until you install 33" tires to make the jump to 4.88 which will then be worth the $1100. :)
