First, I've read the tacked FAQ and read through 34 pages of topics that came up when I searched for "gear".
I have a 1996 Cherokee Sport. It has a 4.0L engine, an automatic OD transmission, and 3.55 gears. I'm wanting to lift it and install 31's. It is my daily driver, with most driving at highway speed. From my calculations, to get back to the stock gear ratio after adding the bigger tires, I'll need 4.11's.
Some say that I'll be happy with 4.11's, while others say to definitely go with 4.56's. I'm leaning towards the 4.56's, but want to be sure that I won't be disappointed -- some say that this is too low-geared for 31's.
Hopefully this can put the argument to rest, and future newbies will benefit from the input. Thanks.
