Finished putting in G2 4.88 gears and G2 rear 30 spline axle shafts in my LJ. I've had those gears sitting around my shop for about a year and just now decided to install them. I finally decided to go to 37" tires so I needed to get the gears in. I went with 37x12.50x17 Procomp MT2s with 17x9 Blackrock aluminum wheels. Overall the Jeep drives amazing with the new gear and tires. With the overdrive on I'm cruising down the interstate at 60mph at 2500 rpm. Which is huge improvement over what I normally do. Used to be 3000-3500 rpms (depending on speed) and boy did that 4.0L scream. IMG_20171212_130842_905.jpg20171210_095152.jpg20171210_084428.jpgmy new tires compared to my dads 35" km2s
