I have the rubi with 4.1 and 35's and personally I think it's fine but 4.56 would be ideal IMO

have a diesel manual with 4.11 and 35's,s I would say for the auto with its longer 1st and OD 4.56, unless you use it as and offroad car only then 4.88's. my diff has been sleeved & gusseted I run cromo axles.

If you want a spreadsheet that has all the different options you can run drop my a pm with your email.

thanks for the heads up Bill in my mind i thought lower air would give more grip thus more force through the diff i thought slipping would be like the new weak point instead of the d30 axle???

Its when the tyre is spinning then hooks up that causes the most shock load through the diff. Less it spins, the better it handles it. This is why we hardly have any dramas with the diesel autos out there, there ability to walk up obstacles in comparison to the manuals is awesome. Therefore, less breakage. Have a look at Chippis truck, the black Jk with the missing rear bushcracker, the ability for him (and I) to walk compared to the other trucks on the day was amazing.
