    No I might be ale too. But I think I'm going t end up not going to save up for my big August trip. Going t be over a grand in fuel alone easy.

    And everyone avoids damage..doesn't mean it won't happen..just remember it's your DD too haha

    Fuck..Jason is going..now I might have to come..

    Oh I'd love to do rim :eek: if by some chance I make it..ill do it with you.

    Trifecta
    Kane's
    Rim
    Are my top choices if I can come.

    TOTW I'd say is an easy trail. There is nothing hard on that. Only hard part has a bypass. But so worth the ride. Very fun trail and my GOD beautiful.

    Oh and a night run has to happen if I come :D

    You're an auto aren't you? Why 4.56's over 4.88's, especially with 37's?!

    Being an auto as well and looking into the future 4.88s are way to deep to keep it functional as a DD. Personally I plan to go 35's (unfortunately not before Moab :() and will then monitor if I will do gears(4.56s) or just a crawl box/FJ case next. Rockgecko03 is on 35's with an auto now and the 3.73's. He does not seem to have any issues.

    I have 4.88's on 33's and I still get 16-17mpg on the freeway at 75mph. Going from 3.73's to 4.88's barely hurt my mileage at all (loss less than 1 mpg on average). I run about 2700rpm at 75 mph on 33's and the mud terrains are still louder than the exhaust on the freeway.

    nope ive done the math, ill be happy with 4.56's ,unfortunately for day to day stuff in winter ill be on 35's and a theres a good chance even to park in the garage itll be on 35's :p


    i plan on running two different sizes as in winter 37's arent that much fun :p



    after having done the past 10k on 35's and 3.73's and not having any issues, ill be more than happy with 4.56's, its the factory ratio, wont cause a hayday with my transmission + look at NWI he loved his 4.56's and 37's

    I will have to pay closer attention to mine but 2700rpms sounds a bit high. But does your drive train like that big of gear with those small tires? :p

    I think so. haha. Still can't even light up just one tire on pavement. They'll just chirp once and I fly. haha I love my 4.88's! Way more peppy that the factory gears.

    At 75 mph with 4.56's you will run about 2500rpm on 33's, 2350rpm on 35's and 2250rpm on 37's. With 4.88's you will run about 2700rpm on 33's, 2550rpm on 35's and 2400rpm on 37's. So really there is about a 200 rpm difference between 4.56's and 4.88's.

    Factory is about 2200rpm with 3.73's and 265's.

    If so, you have to turn some of your lights off, otherwise everyone else will have to wear sunglasses and it won't actually be a night run.
