Unless I missed something, I don't see how it's possible for a vehicle to go from stock 33" tires to 40" tires, not to mention adding weight like a winch and heavy steel bumper, and yet its FASTER than stock without regearing????
yeah, I am calling B.S. on that. It's just not possible.
Im not sure if the torque converter in the 850Re transmission thinks the vehicle is towing something and has adjusted the torque ratio because this thing is definitely feeling more toquey and its top end has the added tire ratio of about 21% tire size increase. Maybe side by side a stock gladiator with less weight would ultimately win but My speed limiter is higher than a vehicle with stock tires so maybe my engine would not cut out while yours does

Thank you.
My stock Rubicon with hard top measures 73" of height. So 4" lift with an additional 3.5" of height gained going to 40s from 33" is still under 7' (84"). Should still fit MOST garages. My garage gives me 82" of clearance.

Did you use a tazer or something to adjust your speedo?
