Thoughts? https://www.xj-ap.com/community/final-drive-gear-ratio-talk/anyone-running-a-4-11-or-4-56-gear-ratio-on-daily-driver-thoughts/#post-2 Thu, 17 Apr 2025 09:43:05 +0000 I’m running 4.56 gears on my off-road rig that I also daily drive.
Low-end torque is way better — makes a big difference on trails, climbs, and technical terrain.
For daily use, it's totally manageable. RPMs are a bit higher on the highway, and fuel economy dropped slightly, but nothing crazy.

If you off-road often, 4.56 is worth it. If you still do a lot of highway miles, 4.11 might be a better balance.

Don’t forget to recalibrate your speedometer after the swap.

Is anyone here running these ratios on their street-driven car or truck? How’s the overall experience?
Any pros, cons, or things to watch out for? Would love to hear your setups and feedback!
