Oman, you purchased these not know what it would do? May I have some money? I need some jeep parts.

Yes. Better acceleration, but decreased top speed.

It doesn't seem like much, but your rpm's are going to drastically change with the same size tire.

My guess of 63mph/101kph is a guess indeed. But don't expect your top speed to be more than it was.

The only thing you'd gain from doing this, is torque out of the hole. But a better chance of breaking other things if this is your plan. You're going to "redline" faster than you'd finish a quarter mile/.4 km.

Still not sure what your plan is.

You cleared many things to me thank you

Breaking other things such as what exactly??
I guess now I have to buy bigger tyers

Like I said, I don't know what your plans are. But the higher torque and acceleration, I'd say it's going to have a greater wear and tear on your vehicle..

The issue you may run into is 'wheel spin' due open differentials.
Might as well add lockers when you have the gears done.
I suggest as wide a tire as you can fit.

Have you tried 4-Low with 31" tires?
