Gearing advice
I recently bought a 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Diesel, it has 33" wheels, front and rear bars, winch, roof rack, rear draws and both axles have ARB lockers with 3.21 ratios.
So, as most people have found, the diff ratios are too high making first gear in high range annoyingly difficult to take off, requiring a little extra accelerator and a little clutch burn to avoid a stall.
In low range it isn't such an issue apart from 1st not been particularly low.
So, I'm contemplating switching to 4.11 or 4.56 ratios and I know I'm going to have to replace the front locker at the same time to accommodate the larger ratio so it's going to be rather exy even if I can sell the front locker second hand.
What I'm after is some advice on my options, what have others done?
