I installed my lift but have used Rock Solid 4x4 for re-gearing and buds have used them extensively for their Jeep mods. I’ve never used them, but there’s also The Edge 4x4 in Englewood and they have had many great testimonials over the years. Up north, I’m less familiar with the shops.
Towing Gurus -
Over the past year of JTR ownership, I researched quite a bit with my Gladiator. My base vehicle is a JTR with 6-speed manual, towing capacity 4,500 lbs. per Jeep in stock format. Last year, due to the excellent guidance on this forum, I decided on a 3.5" lift (Metalcloak), a...
I was at a decision making point last year between an automatic or manual Rubicon. I did my research and it almost turned me off the manual, but I went for it anyway - I have never bought myself an automatic car. I am glad I followed my heart because I absolutely love my manual Rubicon. It...
+1 for Rock Solid 4x4. They came highly recommended and did my 5.38s a few months back. Great comms, quality work, ready when promised, excellent pricing.

I will join as well but not sure about 2.25. The Middle St Vrain trails around Camp Dick are great, if you beat the SxS swarms. I also like to hit the trails around Mt Saxon by ID Springs. I usually stay away from Rampart (dirt bikes) until it flows into Rainbow Falls and the Gulches in CO...
Hey, sorry to hear this is happening to you. I noted that you’re local (to me) and the shop that I use, and my buddies use, is not too far away from you in Centennial. PM or reply here and I’ll share their info, if you’d like it. They might give you the same opinion but it is worth checking...
I’m about 1,000 miles into my 5.38 re-gear on a JTR after installing the MC 3.5” and fitting 37x12.5. I also have the 6-speed manual transmission rather than an 8-speed automatic. I agree, it’s simply perfect and an absolute joy to drive.
Unlike the stock configuration, where 6th gear felt...
