I went and upgraded my tires to 37’s and now my Jeep Wrangler JK modification to-do list just got a whole lot longer. So in this video I’m going to share with you my plan for all the necessary upgrades I’ve got to do now.

So when you go with bigger tires you are putting a lot more stress on your vehicle (your suspension has a lot more weight to deal with and your engine and drive line have to work harder to turn that new rotating mass) and for Jeep JK owners there are a few important upgrades that should really be considered when going with 37’s.
Now my Jeep is the Rubicon version and does have dana 44’s and they are a great axel, but they still need to beefed up a little to ensure I make it home safely off the trail. Ideally I’d love to have some big, strong dana 60 axels and call it good, but at 13k + it’s just not in the budget.
• But before we talk about axles, I know I’m going to get a few question about my lift. If you remember, when I installed the Rock Krawler overland lift kit and it had 3.5” in the rear and 2.5” in the front. The extra height in the rear is meant to compensate for tent, roof rack and all your load out gear on long trips. But when I have it fully loaded out, I just don’t see a big drop in the rear…maybe a slight drop, but not enough to warrant a full 1” extra in the rear. So I swapped out the front springs and now have 3.5” all around. ($170)
• Add another puck to my bump stops
• But bumping my lift means I need exhaust spacers or new drive shafts….. so I ordered some exhaust spacers ($40), but there is no doubt in my mind that the best way to go is new drive shaft. They will be strong and ….. when the budgets allows I will replace the drive shafts ($1000)
• Tire carrier I have received so many comments from you guys about needing to replace my tire carrier when I was running 35’s and I just kept putting it off. Now with 37’s, it’s the next on the list so I don’t break the stock hinges on my tailgate. There are three types of tire carriers, one that mount to where your existing one, ne that is incorporated with the bumper and one that is body mounted. I have been wanting to get new bumpers and haven’t decided if I’m going to get a rear bumper with an integrated tire carrier or not. A bumper/tire carrier combo is well over $1000 or just a tire carrier can be had for about $500 bucks… I’m still researching.
• C-gussets - (the end forging of the axle) these are an easy and inexpensive way to add some strength to my axles. They have to be welded on, so there will be that added cost. ($70, and I’m going to pay to have those professionally welded up , so $2-300)
• Heavy duty ball joints, these have over 60,000 miles on them with 35’s $500 and I have a friend that has the tools to do this or I may just have the shop do them when they do the C-gussets You can buy rebuildable ball joints which are a great option, but they are twice the cost.
• Front and rear chromoly axels ($1000 + labor)
• Axle Sleeves: Goes inside the axle housing and is designed to add strength…… I’m not sure If I’m going to do this or not, because there is a lot of debate out there if a dana44 really benefits from them… $300 (when you upgrade your axles, this is a good time to sleeve them to save on labor.)
• Axle Truss: So a truss is an external brace that gets welded to the axle housing. There is something that needs to be done by a shop with experience. I may do a truss down the road, but it’s not an immediate requirement for me, as I know many guys that are running 37’s on dana 44’s without them. Parts: $130, Labor $3-500
• Big Brakes: I’ve lost stopping power with these heavy beadlocks already, but it’s been amplified by these tires. I’m not sure yet what brake kit I’m gong with, but it’s a priority. They can run anywhere from $1000-$3000

TrailRecon Hey look into the 4LO gear and tire chart, 4.27/4.56 gears You know from 35 to 37 you only add 1” more clearance

@SSMJ 4 года назад

@@thatmar1neguy Sorta. Most "35s" are are 33.5 inches tall and most "37s" are 36 inches tall, it's more significant than from "33" to "35". It gets crazier if you run a tire that is almost completely true to size like Patagonias, which with no vehicle weight are closer to 36.5 inches tall.

@RedRockCrawlers 6 лет назад

hahaha but its all good things to think about if your planning to make that switch

@curttundra 6 лет назад

If you plan to keep the jeep on pavement and well graded dirt roads then yes just slap some new gears and larger brakes. But if you want peace of mind off-road go the limit on upgrades. Break an axle housing on the trail and you would gladly pay double for bigger/upgrade housing on the spot.

@bobcatfiveoint0cj7 6 лет назад

That's why I went with one tons and hydro assist, peace of mind. (peace through strength)

@MichaelCook1981 5 лет назад

Sounds like $4k in upgrades to run the tires.

@salttrader4113 4 года назад

If you just do the gears you open yourself for some broken parts down the road. If you are going to keep your jeep for a long time don't nickel and dime it, you will regret it down the road and the bill will end up higher!

@kristiancastillothegreenje1395 4 года назад

Just do it, I went from 33s to 37s. I just installed a trus kit on my front dana 30 differential, with 4.10 gears. Also, i have a flashcal, so that gave me more advantage. I've been running them for over a year now, and I haven't had any complain. I will go for 4.88 gears.

@redtitan29 6 лет назад

I was looking at hydro assist and contacted PSC directly to speak with them. They recommended hydro with 40" or bigger tires. For 37" tires they offer the XD Big Bore steering box. I went that route along with the upgraded steering pump and you can turn the wheel with a pinky.

I don't blame Jeep they never built these to go above 32" tires 35" is a stretch. When you go larger adding lot of leverage like a breaker bar what happens is if your bouncing up some rocks take a hit on the front side of the tire snap that sector shaft housing. If you all you do drive around town with 37" tires never have issues if you want to do some rock climbing with it only a matter of time.

Thanks for the video. You don't often hear people talking about the nuts and bolts of bigger tires like you have here. You're really helping out those who don't know any better that you can't just slap monster tires on your rig without considering what impact it is going to have on your suspension, gearing, power, mpg, etc.

@jmjhayes2043 5 лет назад

I was having a hard time deciding between 35's and 37's. Now that I've watched this video dilemma/problem solved...It's 35's all the way now. Along the lines of the zen like comment from Mr. Kevin Durham below...There is no way I can afford the 37 upgrades (at least there is no way I would be able to afford to do it right). Thanks alot Brad damnit!!! LOL.

@robertallen6710 4 года назад

I've got 35's..and it doesn't affect tranny shifting and mpg too noticeably..

@sedated247 5 лет назад

Highly recommend the Teraflex Falcon adjustable front stabilizer. I run a 2013 Rubicon JKU as my daily driver, and have it set to 2. Great being able to quickly move to 1 for offroad tactical and bouldering, or to 3 for sand/desert speed runs. Install took all of 10 minutes to install and most of my crew, who run Teraflex Falcon 3.3's, are going to be following lead. Feel free to reach out with questions specific to the stabilizer and hit us up next time your headed to Moab!

@timpeterson3971 6 лет назад

I have the Fox stabilizer as well. Love it. Went through 3 other brands, one per year till the Fox. I have 5.13 gears (4 years old). Love them. Currently running 35's but replacing with 37's next week (2.5 inch front 4.5 rear-going to 4 inch all around). I've seen a few bent axles so I did gussets, c brackets, chromoly axles. Big brakes on the rear. I have spintech locking hubs which I absolutely love-unlocking the front axle lets me run in 2 wheel low with a locker on when needed and I rarely need to run all 4 tires. But it requires 5 on 5.5 wheels. so had to change that and can't find a big brake for the front yet. I am in Utah so run the trails in Moab without any problems but I cut hundreds of pounds by going aluminum on everything I could which completely changed the drive-ability so I have no problems with the gears breaking. I just don't bounce it when going over obstacles. I crawl over them with the help of a little Moab bump. Replaced my drag link and tie rod and ball joints after bending them with 35s. I have wondered if I would make a mistake going to 37s but looking forward to it. I would say the 5.13's and locking hubs were my favorite upgrades because of what they allowed me to do with the jeep (2011 JKU).

@alanburleigh7696 6 лет назад

I'm running 5.13's with a 6 speed Rubicon, and absolutely love them. I have a friend running 37's with an auto, Sport, and is happy. With the Rubicon transfer case, you'll be good with 4.88's

@leedixon7 6 лет назад

Good video as always, I've been running 37's for 2 yrs now with stock 4:10s no issues. I have put on Artec front armour and rear trust. I replaced the stock ball joints and u-joints with alloy USA. Also replaced the brakes with power stop Extreme and put on a Fox steering stabilizer. I love running 37's and this year will put in 3.5 RK coils & take out my 2.5 RK and install a JE REEL front driveshaft. Now I have put in a lot of time & money into my Jeep but I love wheelin and working on my jeep! I have more mods on the way lol, my RU-vid channel is not as good as Brad's here on TrailRecon but I am trying lol. Hope when I get down to southern California I can wheel with you all! Lee.

@joerobinson7141 5 лет назад

Great video, love your channel Brad!!! This question is on everyone’s mind when they talk 37’s, what gearing to use. I can honestly tell you that I have never heard anyone ever complain about having 5:13 gears, but have heard regrets from those that have gone with the 4:88. If your Jeep only went off road here and there it probably wouldn’t matter, but if your going to do it right with no regrets the 5:13’s would be my choice every time.

@deaconnyte9748 6 лет назад

First of all - Love your Channel - I Check in often for your new videos, I can throw in my suggestions as Ive recently overhauled my complete underbody on my 16JKUR. I did replace my axles with Dynatrac ProRock 60's , went with the Hardcore package, by far from cheap but was able to sell my stock Rubi axles for $4200 to offset the cost of the 60's ( just something to think about before putting in a bunch of money on OEM 44's - especially if your keeping the jeep for a while and love jeeping) 1) Had a Fox ATS before - now I run NO SS - Runs straight and perfect - don't feel the need for a SS at all - I think this has more to do with the increased caster of the Axles 6.5 degrees 2) Im running 4.88 gears with 37" Nitto Ridgegrapplers - don't feel the need for anything more - runs great --BUT -- now I'm wishing I had went for 5.13 ONLY because now after 3 months I probably will run 40's within the next year, so I could have avoided the future regear cost in the future. 3) Steer Smarts is great - had their flipped drag link before on 35's and my jeep drove great , still have the Steersmarts but now non flipped on the 60's. Great company. Hope some of this helps - biggest thing is plan ahead instead of working backwards. Again love your videos - I live on the east coast and envy you guys that are able to run those cool trails.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Great insight and very interesting to hear you are not running an SS, I hear this often form folks that are running 60s. Thanks for sharing!

@RedRockCrawlers 6 лет назад

We're running 35's for now but will be going to 37's soonish. We have already upgraded our axle shafts and gearing to 5:13 and everyone that i know that runs 37's now says they like the 5:13 gear ratio. We have several Jeep shops around here also that recommend the same, Although as brad said in the video you can get away with either. Good luck with the upgrades, these dang jeeps never stop sucking money haha.

@advrx1041 6 лет назад

I agree with phantumdrummer on the steering damper. Our local shop here "Dixie 4 Wheel drive" will not install them. I am running 37" Toyo rt's and with no stabilizer. I have 41k miles on the 4" rough country lift and 162k miles on the factory steering components I am using the metal cloak drag link and tie rod. As far as gears go ... (I have a 09 Rubi with the dreaded and anemic 3.8L) I have the 4 speed auto trans and opted for the 5:13's with 35" tires initially and I was running almost 2500 rpms on the highway at 70mph. That was my motivation to switch to the 37's. It is so much better. If you are running the 6 speed manual gear choices are different. Another thought to keep in mind. The Dana 44 on the front of your Jeep is a dana 35 housing, with 44 components. Introducing the need for sleeves gussets and trusses. My opinion is this. They have to take your ball joints out to weld the gussets in place other wise it will melt the teflon inserts. So save the labor on those when the welding is done. Also It will save a lot when the gears are being installed if you have the sleeves and gussets done at that time. Axles are out for gear change and ball joints are out for welding ... drill holes in axle tube insert sleeves and weld, done a bunch more money saved in labor. Hope this helps. I have a few vids on instagram from the maze trail @advrx3 if you want to check it out.

@jimgavin1799 6 лет назад

I went to 37’s on a 4dr Rubicon hard rock. Just saw your video for the first time. I used 4:88 gears because they most resemble stock and mine is a daily driver. It runs great, in fact I just drove from San Diego to Alaska and back this summer. I like the fox ATS stabilizer. I have gussets and Synergy axle sleeves. I also added Teraflex big break kit with the double piston calipers on the front. So far so good.

@anthonyparigi6303 6 лет назад

I'm running 37's with 5.13 gears on my 2010 JK. It made a world of difference. Before I upgraded it was rough on my transmission and I even had to replace my transmission. Once I made the gears upgrade my fuel economy and power were restored. My friend is running 37's with 4.88 gears and he has mentioned to me several times he wished he had went with 5.13's. If I were hauling all the overland equipment you are I would definitely consider the 5.13's. Good luck my friend!

Have only had to replace a fuse. :-) Also running D44's with ARB's, 4.88's (love them), KM2's, and a lift. Good Luck!

@robertmohr845 6 лет назад

As far as brakes and stopping power, I went with EBC yellow Brake pads, I feel like the stopping power is comparable to a big break kit. Driveshafts. I recommend Adams front and rear in 1350. Skip the exhaust spacers. Your in an automatic right? 4.88’s would be a good choice, you should get good torque on the pavement and in the dirt low 1 should crawl around 2 mph. Ten Factor chromolys is what I run, never had any problems. I’m also using the Rock krawler 3.5 lift with 3/4 “ spacers in the front. You won’t have to worry about back space with those wheels. 4” of bumpstop in the rear will keep the tire AND the 1350 drive shaft from contacting anything. Smittybilt’s HD tire carrier will handle a 37. It does mine. The only steering up grade I did besides Synergy everything, was adding a PSC power steering cooler kit. PSC has them. Hope some of this helps.

Congrats on the 37" KO2s! I run them as well and decided to go with 5.13. Haven't tried 4.88 but what tipped me to 5.13 is that they supposedly do behave more civilized on the highway and never hunts for gears, which the 4.88 sometimes does. So far a couple months in, I'm very happy with my decision! 🚀

@cibolocreekoutfit 3 месяца назад

4.88s I have upgraded everything even more than you have mentioned by I’m primarily a crawler. If you run at highway speed with 5.13s you are going to get vibration in the driveline because that driveshaft is going hyper sonic at that point. Lots of gear heat etc. 4.88s and a couple of bolt on performance mods for the motor and you will be happier

@SmokeytheJeep 6 лет назад

The thing with steering stabilizers is all you need is a good basic shock. For that matter, if you’re set up right, you don’t truly *need* one at all. I run the Teraflex stabilizer (pre-Falcon), and it works just fine. Unless your OEM is leaking, I’d leave it be, then replace it with a simple single shock. Should be a sub-$70 purchase. If anyone tries to talk you into dual stabilizers, run the other direction. If your rig is a daily that sees a lot of street use, I’d err on the side of the 4.88s. I don’t claim expertise on gearing, but I’ve known a few who went with the crowd on deeper gears and regretted it because they lost any semblance of street power. Good luck.

@beauch112 6 лет назад

Thanks Smokey! I'm running a 2017 Rubicon JKU. I just bought 37's and am planning on re-gearing. I drive quite a bit on the highway, but I also want some acceleration. What do your guys with the 4.88s tell you about that? I've been leaning towards 4.88 simply because I don't want to eliminate any gas mileage I could have.

@shaunmccloskey9938 5 лет назад

I’ve had both 5:13’s and 4:88’s with 37” tires. I’ll tell you right now, I personally hated the 5:13’s for actually driving, especially on the highway. I would be close to 3k rpms just going the speed limit. I always felt like it was putting a lot of extra wear and tear on the motor, and I hated that. In my next jeep I got 4:88’s and I love them. It feels just like stick to me now. Great acceleration and great highway driving. I even get great gas mileage. Well... you know... for a jeep.

I’m doing extensive research on a daily basis. I guess you could say I’ve been bitten by the “Poison Spyder”. My goal is Rubicon, Moab and all the rest. I’m starting with a “virgin” . So it begins with your experiences and my sweat equity. Maybe you’ll see me out there in a few months or maybe several haha. I really enjoy the troop you trail with.

I have thought very hard about 37s but don’t really know that I need them. I’m blessed and can afford the upgrades, but until I see the real need I’m going to be a good steward and save the coin. The best upgrades for me were, rock sliders, gears and locker.

@davidmcnaughton5115 6 лет назад

Oh and BDS steering stabilizer up from has been yood

@benmetzler5898 2 месяца назад

Something else you may want to keep in mind. I have already done most, if not more, of the upgrades you talked about (before I moved up to 37s). However, my steering, even with a heavy-duty hydro assist set up from PSC, still has a tendency to wander at the center, even though I've tightened it down pretty well. I'm considering the Yeti XD JKU Sector Shaft Brace to try and reign it in. I guess we'll see if that helps. Curious if you or any other commenters have experience with it.

Brad, been following for awhile and love your reviews. Not sure where the Recon axles fall in strength compared to the Rubicon but they are much stiffer than my wife's Hard Rock. Never felt the need for 37's, we both run 35's on AEV Borah wheels and the AEV 3.5 lift kit which does add structural supports of the bolt on kind. Some friends of mine that helped me get started said there are some good reasons to use as much of the stock Jeep consumable parts as possible. They are much cheaper but also more readily available when you need emergency repairs. So AEV uses the stock control arm bushings that don't collect dirt and dust. Stock mount points in case you have to replace a AEV part with a temp fix. AEV also upgrades the steering dampener and the rear suspension sway points. Like you say, it's amazing on the road and off the road. My wife has a two door 2016 Hard Rock and I have the 2018 four door JKU. I get to pull the off road trailer most of the time and love it. a trailer reduces the stress and load on the vehicle considerably but also provides better equipment for longer trips. Another point is the weight of the 37 and wheel. We run BFG MT's and each wheel is 105 lbs. Don't know about you but I have a hard time lifting them now. 37's must push be pushing 120 lb's and that on 13 wheels every 3K miles is more lifting than I care to do. My Stallone days are way behind me. Wish we could trail together at some point but the navy left me in Hampton Roads, not CA. We wheel where we can and trip to CO or AZ and UT for our big adventures. Keep the rubber side down Bro.Fellow CPO RetWard

Thanks for being a long time subscriber! AEV makes amazing products and you make a great point about the stock control arms, they have some solid engineering behind them. 37's are okay putting on the hubs, but throwing them on the tire carrier is a whole nother story! Thanks brother!

What happened with the follow up on your drone, I only recall the first one where you picked it up?

@darillfow 4 года назад

Thanks for this video, I've learn a lot now and realize I cannot afford these. However I still would love to get me a Jeep one day and just leave it at factory made. I can see upgrading it can cause major problems down the road or just simply costing me way too much money. Perhaps this is why the factory build them the way they are to last longer. For those who are on a low budget should leave it alone and not do any upgrades on your jeep unless you make plenty of money and don't mind spending money a lot. Anyway great video! Thanks for this video!

@rashidm4907 4 года назад

you dont have to spend alot of money ! you can buy things individually and install them on your own! Most aftermarket parts are more heavy duty and purpose oriented so it would be better than the factory, it would be an upgrade!

@AREyouAFRAIDofTHEdark1 6 лет назад

I was just rewatching this video along with others of yours. Have you seen The sleeve made by Nitro 4x4? It’s pounded in the sides of the axle with sledge hammers and axle bearing presses and doesn’t require welding or drilling. Cheap and easy install. Plus you could do a how to video!

@bjl8888 6 лет назад

Hi, I run an OME lift kit jk4” and been hearing some GOOD stuff about the Falcons Steering stabilizer/shocks No pull to the right anymore I heard,I’m going to try them soon,get your steer-smarts on made a day and night difference on mine... And regarding gearing I just might go with 4.88/5.13 🍻

@semyono11783 6 лет назад

Brad you don't need to truss and sleeve. I would truss it first, because if you are going to sleeve it, and do it right the shop will drill and weld the drilled out holes to keep the sleeve in place and actually give the axle shaft and rigidity. I was quoted at almost double the labor than what I paid for the truss and gussetts. Needless to say I went with a truss and gussetts, and the chromoly axle shafts are next on the to do list for me, and I'm just going to do both front and rear (I have a rubi, as well). The way I look at it is this, the amount of money I will spend on labor and parts (sleeve, truss and c's) is almost half the price of a currie rockjock 44 housing. I'd rather just upgrade the axle housing at that point instead of messing around with welds and possibilities of warping my axle.

@basementaroostook8319 5 лет назад

I have a 2012 JK manual shift with 37’s and I love 5.13’s it’s fun to drive and great off-road, I too have the Dynatrac ball joints, I also have the Dynatrac brake upgrade kit and the big thing I went over the top and replaced the entire axle housing, I didn’t start with a Rubicon, just a sport

@patricksullivan9713 Год назад

@nickpatoka7096 5 лет назад

I bought a 2018 jk rubicon right off the showroom floor. The day I picked it up I ordered a Jeep 4” lift and a week later installed interco 37” iron tires. After a week I had installed 4:88 gears. It is pretty snappy and I have to be careful to over rev the motor. Next up is a stubby bumper with a winch and narrow fenders.

Brad I just went to 37 inch tires I regeared with 4.88 and it works perfect also did Fox steering stabilizer love it

@Steelviper61 5 лет назад

Perfect video on why I will not be going to 37" tires. There is such a huge upgrade to so many components that should be done to reduce unnecessary breakdowns it's not funny. Then again if this is your thing then go for it. I'll just stick to 35's as my max cause I still want to keep my DD without doing to much damage if at all possible. Great video tho Brad thanks for doing it.

@jerimiahjohnson520 6 лет назад

Just upgraded to 37's myself. I am running 5:13's I sleeved gusted and truss my front axle. And I upgraded to a ram assist. definitely way better than a steering stabilizer. The gears returns the jeep back to stock power.

@danzway8021 6 лет назад

Hey Brad with a 4 dr I would suggest running 5.38 gears. The 4.88 works well with the 2 dr but with the extra weight of a 4 dr I would really recommend the 5.38's. Also before you go welding trusses and gussets take a look at the Dana ultimate 44 much less expensive replacement for the front axle compared to dynatrac axles and you'll never have to bother with it again. also take a look at the G2 core 44. Its what I run it is the in between axle to dynatrac and Dana, I have been running one for almost 4 years and I do some pretty rough rock crawling definitely a bad ass axle!!!! Good luck!! By the way great job on the videos even though Im little more seasoned to jeeping I still enjoy watching ....Keep it up!!!

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Thank you! I would love to be able to purchase a Ultimate Dana 44 or G2 44, but my wife would kill me. So just I have to take small bites and upgrade what I have for the mean time... maybe in the future.

@danzway8021 6 лет назад

TrailRecon I hear ya with the money issue. I think most jeepers out there deal with the same problem myself included. Build is coming along nicely... Keep it up!!👍👍

@siklegend 3 года назад

i have the non rubicon version with dana 30 and dana 44 in the rear, never had any sort of issues with 37's and i off-road very heavily big rocks, tons of flex snow, mud etc. I think most people don't know how strong these axles really are.

@rexcarroll6019 6 лет назад

Hey Brad. Saw you and a line of Jeeps from the San Diego Jeep Club pass by at the TDS Desert Safari. Before you replace the steering box, you might want to look at installing Synergy's sector shaft bracket and brace kit. I'd recommend anyone running 37's to do the same. It's cheaper and easier than replacing the steering box and gives much needed support to the end of the sector shaft. If you decide to go that route, then you might as well upgrade your track bar at the same time. For a brake upgrade, I like the Teraflex big brake kit (front) and big rotor kit (rear). Their master cylinder kit helps to keep up with the bigger calipers. Replacing the stock brake lines with braided SS lines from Crown Performance will also help to take some of the mushiness out of the brake pedal. For a steering stabilizer, my vote goes to the Fox ATS stabilizer. Looking forward to seeing what you decide to do. Great videos.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

We had a pretty large convoy at TDS. Sorry I didn't get a chance to say hello! Thanks for all your suggestions, some solid recommendation you've provided.

@Mike-01234 5 лет назад

My JK I went from 35 to 37 it needed a ton of upgrades to make it work you wouldn't think just 2" make that much different but wow it did. Fenders had to go new lift, wheel spacers, 20k miles down the road ball joints took a hammering done replaced with stock ones lasted 10k. Now I'm looking at aftermarket high dollar ones. I'm done building JK's like these too much money rapped into it where I can find an old rock crawling buggy for 10k has V8 really big axles everything strong. I can just get liability insurance and if it gets rolled just push it over and keep going.

@robertsantos182 6 лет назад

Thanks for the info....... I on 33’s now and was thinking if going to a 37”. But after this I’ll be going to 35”. It’s my daily driver and I’m on a tight budget. Maybe some day but not to soon in my future. Lol.Thank you for the great info. 😎👍🏼

Hey man, just wanted to see what you've done and any advice you could give. Im also on a 33" but im in a 2007 JK X with D30 front and D35 rear and wanted to leap to 37" but not waste money for a 35" thanks.

my D44 is sleeved and "C" gusseted and i'm running 5.38's with BFG 37's but i'm a 2011 JKUR sooo...As far as steering stabilizer goes i ran a FOX ATS for awhile until i went hydro assist which is a whole different world in driving offroad in the rocks.

@coreysaxe3902 6 лет назад

@rareearthfab5511 6 лет назад

You have a good plan coming together for those 37s. People have no idea what it takes to properly set up a suspension, steering, driveline and axles for a 37" tire. Try to cut corners and your JK will end up nearly undrivable.. do it right and you're going to affect your retirement age... Haha.. If you're not ready to go hydraulic assist (I wasn't) take a look at the PSC XD steering box. Not cheap but I run 37s at 8-10 psi and am fully locked. I can maneuver around locked up pretty easy with the PSC box. I couldn't turn at all with the factory box. Love the channel!

I have a 2017 JKU , I'm doing a 3.5 lift and 35's with 4.56 gears. I think the 4.88 gears would work fine, with the 37's .If you go 5.13's your going to spin that motor high on the freeway. Just my opinion. Looking forward to more great videos.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

I believe the rpm difference from 4.88 to a 5:13 at 65 mph is only a little over 200... so that shouldn't be that noticeable. Thank you!

@snowmanwithahat 6 лет назад

You're right, in fact it's a little high compared to stock, but feels good. It's about the same as a 5.38 gear with 40s (which I'm running). You won't regret it

@kimcaldwell6499 6 лет назад

I looked up your rpm's for 65 mph. With the 4.88 your turning 2424 , with the 5.13 your turning 2548. So it's not that bad.

@philfortner1805 2 года назад

37 tires on a heavy duty pickup matches the axles/gear strength. Unless you utterly rebuild a jeep on giant pickup axles/gears/steering its only a matter of time before pop pop fizz fizz...oh what a relief that diff and cv joint is!

@hickoryridgefarms 6 лет назад

You don’t really need a steering stabilizer after the yeti parts with their Griffin XD Attenuator. If you want one, Fox makes a nice adjustable stabilizer.

@zoranallen5205 6 лет назад

1. The Teraflex steering stabilizer has worked fantastic for me. I tried a Fox and Bilstein but they both had a slight pull, but they worked for dampening. Since you’re upgrading your steering, maybe the pull won’t affect you. 2. Id go with the 4.88, because the KO2’s run pretty light and pretty small, so those would likely be all you’d need.

@pitbull62 6 лет назад

so far youre the only one to have mentioned accurate tire sizing. there are 35s that are the same size as a large 33. i run 33s and am always getting asked if theyre 35s. who knows, his 37s might actually just be large 35s? at 5:13 may be totally overkilling it.

@copperhead_R 6 лет назад

Great video man!! I live in Florida so we don't have the crazy trails from up North or West coast, I do have 37s on a dana 30 with nothing besides 4.56 Yukon gears and no problems at all...... yet. I am going to get 60s but as of right now they are handling great. It has been almost a year and no problems yet, I have wheeled my jeep as hard as you can in Florida like man made obstacles and couple all the trails here. But overall yes I will get one ton axles, but yeah you can run 37s on a dana 30.

@RoyalGraham 4 года назад

Hey man, I would love to pick your brain on the topic of 37's on 30's. I've been driving a 2007 JK X with D30 front and D44 rear with 2.5" suspension lift on a 33" MT. I have not upgraded any steering components but its time to get new tires soon and I was looking to make the jump to 37's. I know there is risks and I do plan to upgrade everything down the road but I don't want to be stuck at a 33 for awhile and I don't want to waste the money for a 35 when I know I want a 37. Any advice, tips, comments you could lend me? Thank you!

@copperhead_R 4 года назад

Graham yeah you can run 37s as a daily but there is minor things you can do to make sure you dont have problems. Get a C gussets kit, make sure your brakes are in good shape(rotor and pads). Also ball joints, regear and you can run 37s. But i dont recommend a lot of abuse on them, if not just look for a set of used rubicon axles or make the investment to build or buy a set of one tons

@RoyalGraham 4 года назад

Copperhead_JL if I planned on buying a Dana 44 front axle from a rubicon would you suggest me just risking a stock 30 until it breaks or would you suggest still investing in a gusset kit, regear, etc?

@copperhead_R 4 года назад

Graham i wouldn’t recommend if you are not regearing. That would be to much for the current gears and trans. 35s you can probably get away without regearing but 37s you probably would be risking it. And also for how long until you get the 44, if not just wait and go to the 44

@bad_company5.03 6 лет назад

@phantumdrummer 6 лет назад

I've been running 37"s for the past five years now and loved going with the larger tires. Several things I've found over the years. First breaks are the first thing you will need. Bigger the better and don't skimp. They are your life. I went with Teraflex, but there are several other very good options out there too. Next since you have D44's skip even the 5.13's and go with the 5.33! I am actually running the D30 front (that is gusseted and trussed) and the largest gear set I can fit are the 5.13's. (I would have swapped to D44's already, but I'm actually saving up for a pair of Currie axles down the road. Maybe next year.) The 5.13's are a huge help, but a 5.33 would work better even at highway speeds. Third some people think I'm nuts, but I actually did a HUGE amount of research on this and found it to be true... I don't run a steering stabilizer at all. Yup, that's right... nothing and you know what? Unless you're racing at very high speeds they are literally worthless. Not having a stabilizer actually helps me feel the road and conditions better. Yes, the steering is slightly on the loose side, but the road feel still is better than what I had before taking it off. The fact is that it actually puts LESS stress on the steering box because it only has the tires to deal with. It no longer has both the huge tires AND the extra resistance of the stabilizer trying to prevent it from tuning. As long as you have the proper alignment and caster angles you will never know it's gone. Stabilizers only mask poor alignment setups and worn out component problems. (I currently have no bump steer at all.) After that, I have Tom Wood's custom drive shafts. I cannot say enough about the quality and durability of these drive shafts. They are literally the best drive shafts I've ever seen. That guy truly knows his stuff. As for some other things... I went with a complete set of fully adjustable Currie control and steering arms. All of which have proven to be bullet proof so far. That is with some seriously heavy wheeling too. Matter of fact everything to do with my 4" lift is Currie. From control rods and joints to springs. Along with that I run Fox 2.5 Factory Series remote reservoir shocks all around. Which have also been a very nice option. Finally the latest item I've added are a full set of front and rear Revolution chromoly axles. They provide 100% USA made 4340 chromoly axle shafts front and rear. (most only provide 4140 chromoly for the rear.) So far they are doing well, but they are so new I have not had the chance to give them a full off-road outing to see how well they do. Hope some of this info helps or gives you an idea as to where you want to go with your upgrades. Happy wheeling!

You should look at just replacing your knuckles with a set of high steer knuckles. They are much stronger than stock and they reduce bump steer a lot.

I agree! Im running the 3.3 Falcon shocks with a 3.5" Game Changer lift and the ride is unbeatable. Everyone is surprised of the ride every time they jump in. I decided on 4.88 gears and Im glad I did. There stronger and aren't constantly overworking the engine which equates to poor fuel mileage. The rpms are literally only 100 rpm higher over stock so drivability stayed pretty much the same.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

The cost of everything is something I've been thinking a lot about. The cost of a new dana 60 is a bit pricey, especially when you factor in that you need new rims as well. I think I'll keep a tally of the cost as I go. Thanks!

@williamdubyaog1334 6 лет назад

I have a 2016 Rubicon 2dr and I went with superlifts high clearance dual hydraulic steering stabilizer and it is amazing , I am running 34/12.50 and have no bump steer through the steering wheel , I will say do not go with a gas charged steering stabilizer because it will make the steering pull one way or the other due to gas pressure always on one side on the piston , I had a 2015 ram 2500 Deisel with Bilstein dual steering stabilizers and always thought the alignment was off well after two alignments done I digged deeper research wise and found that info out so stick with hydraulic stabilizers at minimum !!!!! But I recommend superlifts high clearance dual !

@mauiman52 6 лет назад

Brad, you are on the right track there. Gearing: I run 4.56 with 37" and personally wouldn't go higher because the RPM get's so high on the freeway (5-Auto). Acceleration is great. Also my 37" rubs on an AEV rear bumper with a RK X-Factor kit (4.5') , because that kit sets your rear axle an inch back. Do not like that at all. Last: I am running a Sahara with stock axles and no reinforcements at all. According to my shop, as long as you are easy on the gas such as Dan Micks is, go ahead with it. Oh, forgot: Fox is what I have for the steering damper and it works just fine. What would I do different in my future JL? Stay as light as possible and make a plan upfront with a kit rather than a Frankenlift. I hear ya with bump steer issues and am following a different path to solve it with a dropped pitman arm on my Synergy stuff. More power to you Brad!

If you still do a lot of street driving 4.88. With 5.13, even on 37's your RPM will be so high from highway driving it is a bit much. Besides, we have JKU Rubicon's. The 4/1 4wd-low ratio in our transfer case makes up for any loss of acceleration off road. The 4.88 is stronger and a better choice in my opinion.

@eric41466 6 лет назад

bleepinjeep has a video on the math to get the gears right when changing wheel sizes so that the over all drive line ratio stays the same.

@davidwitcher5443 6 лет назад

Gear calc says a certain number for a given RPM but no one seems to factor in the raised height and rolling mass that causes more strain aerodynamicly so a deeper gear (numerically higher) would probably be the better choice.

@markdarnell2792 6 лет назад

@feellnfroggy 6 лет назад

Check out the Yukon gear calculator to determine your gear needs, itll match it up to keep your speedo at factory, and then for crawl gear, you can just invest in a doubler. For the sway bar, dont even worry about it. The unsprung weight of your tires has changed, not the weight of your rig over the springs. You need gears, clearance, and hyrdo steering assist, with a brake upgrade, thats about it. There is a Jeep kit that utilizes the stock brake calipers, but moves them out an inch for a larger rotor, low cost, quality way to increase stopping power and effectiveness without killing hte brake system. IMO

@ryanmartinage 6 лет назад

Just do the sleeves while the shafts get in. A few hundred bucks for some additional insurance on a 44 when your goals are getting into 60 territory as far as capability / durability.

@briangray6372 6 лет назад

I think you are thinking about some things wrong. Like a steering stabilizer, It is on to help not fix anything. If you build your front end with HD non-flexing parts you will not even need one. I replaced my front end with TeraFlex Monster trac bar, drag link, adjustable tie rod, and adjustable ball joints. my front end was perfect on and off road running 35" tires (even at VERY high speed) My cheap teraflex shocks are going now so I just ordered a set of Falcon 3.3.

Rcv’s Went with 4.88s. Great on the freeway and did flawless on the Rubicon last fall. I too am running stock stabilizer 🤪 so curious to see what you decide on.
