4:77's & 35's...some stats...

Bart, 4.56 to 4.77 is a 4.6% change.

By way of comparison, going from stock 245/70 (29.5") tires to 265/75 (~32") is about a 7% change.

Thanks, Swede. So you think there will be a somewhat noticeable change?

"somewhat noticeable" sounds about right...

No, no, no Bart, not worth the difference. Don't worry, I can take those 4.77s off your hands .

Seriously though for your Trooper's tire size its not really worth it. I struggled with this going to 4.56 from 4.30 for my 35s & its really wasn't enough difference for the time, effort & money. For VXs or an auto Trooper it makes more sense to swap a 5-speed & get the ~3.75 1st gear. As you know, I stumbled upon an ARB 12 bolt 3rd with 4.56 so I ended up deciding to regear while upgrading to lockers.

IMO, those gears are worth too much $$$ for the a small benefit you'll get in the Trooper. Nice work finding those...
