Regearing for 33's

Would 4.56 be good to get back some power off the line? Will regearing help or hurt my speedometer error?

 

I have 4.56's and 33's, and the power off the line is really good. Better than stock, IMHO. That combination of gears and tires results in about 10% lower gearing overall. Unless you correct your speedo, it will also be off 10%. The downside is that on the highway, you are turning higher RPM's at cruising speed. Check out this site for gearing info: http://grimmjeeper.com/gears.html

 

If it's an auto, the rpm will only be about 200rpm higher than stock at 70mph. Right about what you want for helping make up the extra drag and rolling mass. Still lower rpm than a manual trans would be stock.

 

thanks guys!!!
