Can you run 35s without changing the gears on a Wrangler?
Milestar Patagonia 35" Mud tires on 17 inch rims.
amzn.to/3mVe4dy
Here’s the big question I have been running 33’s with the stock gears on my 2007 wrangler and never had any loss of power. It’s have a six speed manual transmission and it does well with 33’s. Now I’m going to take a chance and put some 35s on and see how it does.
I am back from the Tire place and did not notice a loss of power. The light turns green, and trough the gears I go. So far so good. The bigger test is came Saturday, a full day of trails down in Bartow. While there we asked a few fellow Jeepers how they liked their 35s and if they had stock gears.
AROUND TOWN:
No problem. It still has some pep and acceleration is acceptable. Under 45 mph and you may not even notice.
HIGHWAY DRIVING:
It gets up to seed ok, but suffers after 65. You have to downshift to go up any incline. It runs around 2500rpms in 5th on a flat surface. 6th gear will cause a gradual loss of speed.
OFFROAD DRIVING:
We took the time to wheel out at the home of Jeepin’ with Judd to put them through the final test. It went up hill good and could sling the mud out of the tread. I did a couple of recoveries and had no issues pulling someone else out. I do have a 3.5 inch lift but still had rubbing with the stock fender flares.
This was while navigating a wash out area that offered some flex testing moments.
So the answer is…
YOU CAN BUT.... be prepaired for issues. Unless your Jeep was made with 35s in mind its going to have some issues, lack of hwy speed, bogging down, no slow crawl, and sensoe issues. Im no pro but after spending over a year fixing issues I have put the 33s back on till the regear happens. The cost for me to regear and put lockers on is around 5 grand right now. If you have a Jeep that came with gears made for 35s you should be good. If it was made with 31s in mind you may have troubles. Then again you might be fine...

Gear set is between 500-700$ no where near 5 grand to re gear bud

@batesBeckham 11 месяцев назад

@@poker8193 if you can do them yourself there are a couple gear sets for that amount. Most gear sets are almost a grand and anywhere from 1k to 1400 for a shop to install them. I just got quotes yesterday..I cant find a single shop anywhere in a 2 state radius that will install gears that you didnt buy from them. So there goes the cheap 600 to 700 dollar gear options.

@Bradrick_Larney_Sr 2 года назад

Rubicon comes through with different gearing, compared to a lower model such as mine. I have an 08 wrangler X (JK) with a 6 speed manual, 3.8L. Only engine "performance" work done is a K&N cold air intake and Borla exhaust with 33x12.50-17 inch tires and only a 2.5 inch lift. Around town is OK at best with definitely loss of power (not a crazy amount) but noticeable and you'll find yourself using 6th gear on main roads at times as your RPMS are higher and speedo not reading correctly like with stock wheels. I do a lot of highway driving and 6th gear on 33s the engine tacs out at 3000rpm at "73 pmh" (really 65mph) causing me to get passed by everyone and literally their grandmother! Because I don't want to push it much more. But I found this video actually looking for advice being a first time jeep owner. And I definitely learned something here.

@FloridaJeepRides 2 года назад

The red Jeep is going under the knife soon. Looks like a small head gasket leak has set into the middle right cylinder. Here I was ready to put in 4.88s and some lockers. The 33s that we had performed like yours.

The 2 rear plugs were very very worn - the rest were fair but after replacing the wires and plugs the other errors cleared. I bought an extra crank shaft sensor to keep in the Jeep. That and changed the tie rod end at the pitman arm. I hit a post and knocked the ball joint loose.

I am running 35” MT’s on my 16’ JKU Sport - stock D 30/44 axels with no HD ball joints, gussets or sleeves. It is on a 3 inch lift with Taraflex springs and the shocks are stock. My question is, how worried should I be about the possibility of breaking something with the way it is currently set up? I know it depends on the level of trail difficulty, but In the six months I have had it, I have done some pretty moderate trails here in Utah and have had no issues. Meaning, no hardcore bouncing off rocks or anything like that. But I do often hit 4 Lo to get up moderately steep switchbacks with moderate rock gardens, but again, not crawling Rubicon trail or extreme Moab.. Am I OK continuing to do moderate wheeling with the way it is currently set up? What are some of my key limitations? Trailwise? Thanks so much! 🤙

@FloridaJeepRides 2 года назад

Well... I have had some issues and would think that it was the 35s. I have put it under some stress but not broken anything drive train related. I do plan to put some 488 gears in eventually.

Most of the gremlins have been taken care of, a lot of error codes kept coming up. The last thing was the fuel pump and filter. Gear wise, I think it needs to go down to 4.88s Even in low 1 I still have to work the clutch to slow things down to a good craw. Steve's ruts at Judd needs to be taken real slow as well as the rock piles out at Tanglewood. Soon, but for now its still running what gears were there. I want to do 4.88s and lockers.

@geographyinaction7814 Год назад

A Jeep owner can 'get away' with not doing the right thing, but let's get real. I see so many people saying that you don't need to regear, and that is just silly. We're not talking opinion here, we're talking simple physics, and going from a 30" to a 35" tire changes things. It will impact performance, fuel economy , and long-term reliability. One person was on RU-vid saying you only need to change the gears of you're offroading and that is silly too...your highway speeds, and the way your Jeep drives will be seriously impacted. At the end of the day, you've spent thousands on rims, tires, lifts, armour, bumpers, lighting, winches, an ARB fridge and you cheap out on the gearing when you've added how many pounds to a spinning wheel? Of course it will impact things.
