Right now my jeep has 5.38 : 1 and I want to know your advice on changing it to 4.27:1. I am going to have only one vehicle which most of the time on road driven, yes on holidays I may go to the desert side.

Can you please post your comments on this change.
My Classics gearing was too low for the highway, I had changed the diff ratio to 4.27 (99% sure). That made a huge difference to highway performance and cruising at 80 / 90 kph.

You have the XD3P 2.5, correct? If its the 4 speed gearbox, I'd still go with the 4.27 only. Lets wait for headers / Arkas thoughts on this.
