The rears 3.55 right now. I plan on goin to 4.10s when i redo the lift to 4.5". I was gonna do it whilst i had the front end down doing the dana 30 swap but i think ill save it for later. (Dont want to do all my projects at once lol) so i think ill scavenge th jy for a
1. 3.73 rear for now.
2. snag the gears out of a 2.5 cherokee with stock 4.10s
3. Or get 3.55s for the front

Not sure when ill redo the lift and and 33s so i think ill go with option one if i can since im on 31s now and 3.73 with play nicer with my tires

earlier in this thread i mentioned rough idle after my injector swap.. a couple weeks have passed and i realized that my intake and header were loose cause ing air to get in i followed tone tourqe sequence properly but like an idiot didn't go over them a second time to make sure they were all tight

so with that said i re tightened it all now she purrs like a kitten..

oh and my guy with my 4wd parts fell through.. he wanted to just sell the whole jeep and i don't have the space for it
ah well we'll se what the jy has for me..

That would be cool but if it was me, I would save the money and try to get the parts for the 4wd swap before messing with the lift, after I do my swap I plan to get a new 4.5 lift but only after I get 4x4

I used the same oil and love it she rides super nice around the lake, Also food for thought, what tires do you want in the end?
