Hello to everyone. just got a 4.5 rough country lift for my 93 xj and I am stuffing 33's under it and suggestions on what gear ration I should go with? it's my all around rig for in town and off road. also I am looking to get new front and rear bumpers for it any suggestions would be very helpful.

 

I run 4.56 gears with 33s on my 91 Cherokee Sport with the 4.0 HO motor. It has great acceleration and power and gets 18 mpg on the Hwy. if your XJ is a Daily Driver/Weekend Warrior, I highly recommend 4.56 gears. If it was an off road only rig I would go on up to 4.88s.

 

Sounds good man. Any suggestions on websites I can order the parts from???

 

Randys Ring and Pinion is a great place they are very helpful and have a great tech team.Do not skimp on gears beleive me it will end up costing you in the long run get a good quality set of gears and good install kit

 

4Wheel Parts usually has a gear deal going on for Jeeps. Like I got Genuine Gear, ring and pinion sets and master install kits with Timken bearings for my front D30 and rear D44 for 4 hundred and some change including shipping to my front door. I installed mine myself and saved around 6 hundred in labor cost to have them installed. Hope this helps.
