Gear ratio for lift and tires
I have a 99 jeep wj.... I Found the lift I want on Roughcountry website. But my question is what gear ratio will give me highway gear with the 4" lift with 31x12.50. WJ with the RF45 transmission. 4.7L. Im not looking to go rock climb or anything.

I would like to know about your lift... I havent found a 6" suspension lift. I have a 99 jeep WJ that I just bought a few months ago,.... I want to put 33" on it but you cant do the body lift due to the subframe. I saw the specs for the front and rear axle. That was some help. Im not looking to go hard core rock climbing. I just want my jeep lifted.

I'm not sure if this is the information you're looking for but if you go to tirerack.com you can see the revolutions per mile for any given tire size. I'm running 31s with stock 3.73 gears (if i rember right) and it still does ok on the highway. I have a dana 35 and i've read you don't want to go too big with the tires because you'll just break an axle.
