Upgrading my stock gears to run 35" tires.
I have 35" BFG Mud terrain tires on my 97 Jeep Cherokee 5spd with a 8.5" custom Fab lift...But I need to upgrade my Diff gearing from the stock gearing to get my jeep back to driving par and get better gas milage and get some of that torqe and acceleration back..so my question is WHAT GEARING SHOULD USE IN MY STOCK REAR CHRYSLER 8.25 AND FRONT DANA 30 TO GET THE BEST RESULTS FOR ON AND OFFROAD DRIVABILITY! -Thanks a ton...Steven

4.88's in my auto with 35's still feels dog slow. The limited time I had stock 3.55's and 35's I needed one of those orange triangle things you see on horse drawn carriages.
