Tales From The Tech Line: Picking Ratios… A Jeep JK Re-Gearing Story
- Customer Question: Can you advise on a recommended gear ratio for a 2017 Jeep Wrangler four-door with a 3.6-liter motor running 35 inch tires? … Would it be 4.56 or 4.88?
- Gus: Is it an automatic or manual transmission? How will it be used?
- Customer: Automatic. It’s a daily driver and weekend warrior off-roader. I do some off-road driving for my job during the week. I’m running 3.73s currently.
- Gus: The 3.6-liter finds its happy place cruising in the 2,000 to 2,500 rpm range, they aren’t really known for bottom-end torque. Check the graph above.
