4:56 or 4:10
 

Bout to regear my 2001 jeep Cherokee I use every day as a commuter as well as a toy I don't know what would be better 4:10 or 4:56 it's got a rubicon express 5.5 long arm with 33's mud terrains I'd like power but also decent gas mileage or atleast what I have now any suggestions I was told at a local 4x4 shop to go with 4:56 any advice would help thanks???????????

how much high way driving you do? If a lot, keep the gears you have in it now. If lots of city driving, 4.10s are your friend. Mine was my dd for long time with 35s on it. I did lots of high way driving, so I left it with the 3.55 gears in it.

4.56's. puts you close to stock, IMO its ideal.

4.56's with 33's at 65MPH will put you close to 2113 RPM
4.10's with 33's at 65MPH will put you close to 1899 RPM
3.55's with 33's at 65MPH will put you close to 1645 RPM

3.55's with 28.3" tires (225-75-15r) at 65MPH is about 1960 RPM.

300 rpm doesn't sound like much, but can make a big difference for towing/cruising. I like having passing power and off the line ease. thats why will be running 4.56's.

I go to work so def 10miles atleast 3days a week but other than that just ski snow boarding trips an that's bout it but it is my daily driver

im in the same boat. my city milage sucks. im leaning towards 4.10s. i drive 20 miles aday doin 70 on the highway

http://jeephorizons.com/tech/rpmchart.html and http://www.grimmjeeper.com/gears.html really helped me in deciding.

Hope those help.

Thanks everyone for the input much appreciated
