Why so much lift? You don't need anywhere near that much lift for 35's. As for the 4.10's, right now I'm on 33's and 4.10's and I hate it. Feels sluggish and doesn't hold OD very well on the highway.

You look like you have most of it planned out. What kind of terrain are you going to.be in?

I have a 6.5" lift and 35s... 4.10 gears. It was pretty slow/gutless before the Stroker.... still enough power to do everything I asked of it. Now I can stomp my stock XJ and get decent milage going 80.

That being said, untill I get some kind of gear reduction on the transfer case, I have to use my brakes way more offroad than I like. It would be much nicer to coast a bit slower and not slide down steep/unstable areas. I will probably go with 4.88s soon.
