2022 Diesel Rubicon swapping from factory 3.73 to 4.56

@BigDaddy511 Once you get your 4.56 installed on your diesel please let us know how it tows and how high speed is. I am on the fence between 4.10s and 4.56 with the diesel. I'll as well be towing 3-4000lbs.

With any luck the Gladiator is supposed to be hitting the lot on the 23rd of this month.

We traded our 2020 Gladiator Sport Max Tow the day we ordered the new one.

I sure do miss it.

Actually I’m pretty impressed in timing since we ordered the new one on December 20th

This was the one we traded.

The Jeep made it in this weekend. My dealership is still unable to find the 4.56 gears through Mopar. He can get 4.88s and 4.10s

I feel like the 4.10 would be a waste from the 3.73 and the 4.88 would be too steep

The gear guy I spoke to said that since we are adding the weight of the bigger tires 37s, so more rotating mass, it's better to go up rather then down after getting back to factory. I was leaning to 4.10s since I had a line on some take offs from a gas gladiator.. From what I have read factory tires on 3.73 would be like 37s on 4.30. So his take was 4.10s were not enough and 4.56 would be the better option. But then again everyone including myself is running 37s with 3.73 and it seems to be ok.. I haven't towed yet though.

I installed 410s in mine with 37s tires. It's now drive just like when i had stock Rubicon 33s. Let us know how the 4.56s feels and at what rpm at 80mph.

I have a set of 4.88s to go into mine. I plan on towing with it and moving up to 39s eventually. Once the weather gets nice and I can daily something else I’ll get them and my e lockers installed
