Sharp! Fuel Blitz wheel?2" Mopar lift

it wasnāt ānecessaryā, but dependent on where you live it wouldnāt be a bad idea. Iām down on flat land in Louisiana, so finding 7th and 8th(sometimes) isnāt too much of a chore. If I lived near mountains I would definitely regear. The loss on takeoff isnāt that bad, but itās noticeable. I donāt plan on a regear yet, but itās an upgrade for down the line.was re gearing necessary?
Iām interested in what folks here would suggest the gearing should be for 37x13.50ās on Rubicon Gladiator with V6 gas and auto trans. With the stock gears, rarely do I get into 8th for any duration on the highway, unless very flat or small downhill gradient. Also, plan on playing some off-road, but most likely nothing extreme ... more easy to intermediate type trails ... at least for now. ;-).it wasnāt ānecessaryā, but dependent on where you live it wouldnāt be a bad idea.

Congrats!My brand new 2021 willys with a 2" mopar lift and 35x12.50x17 falken mt on stock rims.
Im regearing to 488s with 37s on my Sport. I had a JLUR on 37s and would have regeared as well, even living here in Florida. Getting into 7/8th gear isn't the reasoning. Regearing puts the shift points and torque curve back in sync, as well as, make it much easier to accelerate and maintain speeds. Highly recommend spending the 1500 to regearIām interested in what folks here would suggest the gearing should be for 37x13.50ās on Rubicon Gladiator with V6 gas and auto trans.

I run the same size on 20ā wheels and a 3 1/2ā Metalcloak Game Changer lift. Took a while to get them balanced correctly. Tried balance beads first but recommended amount of beads would not balance, so had them removed and balanced with tape weights. Took quite a bit more weight than I expected to get them balanced. Once I got them balanced theyāve been fine, at least on the road as I havenāt done any hard core off road. I run them around 37 lbs, pretty smooth ride. Have 3-4K miles on them and donāt even think about initial balancing issues any more. That said, Iāll look at others that may be better balanced off the shelf next time, then decide.How do you like the Pats? THinking of getting them for my JTRD.
New member here - longtime lurker though... I love the polished look. A few weeks ago I ordered a billet silver rubicon and am having the dealer install the mopar 2 inch lift with polished pro comp series 69s in 35x12.5-17. I'm not quite ready for anything larger than 35s. Your ride looks great!Clayton 3.5ā Oveland plus kit
