33s and 4.10s

I'm planning to put 33" MTRs on my Rubicon. I love the way that it will
idle up a hill with the 31s. Will it still do that with 33s and 4.10s?

Thanks!

-Fred

I'm pushing 33's thru 4.10's with my 4cyl on my 89 YJ. Flat roads are no
problem, large hills slow me down to about 55mph or less. The 6cyl thru
4.10's will fare much better. Which engine do you have?

My I-6 pushes my 33s just fine with 4.10s... Like Carl said, it's not the
low speeds where you'll notice, it's the high speeds. There's a definate
loss of power up there. That said, if you're not a speed demon, you'll be
fine.

You have a four to one transfer ratio.

My 82 CJ-7 has 33's and a 4.10 rear end. The I-6 crawls fine.

I've got a '04 Ruby I crawl great with my 33x12.50 on a 10" wheel....

Fred,
You will notice a power loss. You will also want to re-calibrate your
speedometer.

If you check you speedo against a radar you will notice that with 31's you
speedo reads about 3 miles and hour faster than you are really going .....
this is my 2nd ruby as I traded the '03 for an '04 for the interest rate. on
both Jeeps we found the when you change to a 33 that puts your speedo almost
exact. We used a radar from a motorcycle cop. we also use gps for verify the
results. You will notice a lost of power running at interstate speeds, but
we still car capable of running 90 + on the highway. Good luck.

I had 4.10s on my 33's and recently had them changed to 4.56.

the 4.10 are ok but I really like the powerful feel of the 4.56's... tho my
top end speed isn't as high as it used to be. Haven't switched my speedo
gear out yet from the 4.10s... gotta do that some time soon.
