Revolution Gear & Axle 96-04 Jeep Wrangler TJ/Grand Cherokee Dana 35 Rear 5.13 Ratio Gear Package

This 5.13 ratio gear package from Revolution Gear & Axle is specifically made for the Dana 35 rear axle found in 1996-2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ and Grand Cherokee models. Choosing a lower gear ratio like 5.13 is a common upgrade for Jeep owners who have increased tire size, especially for off-road use. This change helps bring your engine's RPMs back into an optimal range, improving acceleration and making it easier to climb obstacles or tow heavier loads.

Revolution Gear & Axle uses well-made components in their kits. This package includes all the necessary bearings, shims, and installation hardware to properly set up your new ring and pinion gears. Proper installation is critical for the longevity of your differential, and having all the correct pieces in one box saves you time and ensures you don't miss a crucial part during the rebuild. This kit is designed to fit the Dana 35 axle, which is a popular choice for many Jeep models from this era.

When installing a new gear set, it's important to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure. This typically involves a period of moderate driving with no hard acceleration or heavy loads, followed by an oil change. This process allows the new gear teeth to properly mate and wear in, ensuring a quiet and durable operation for years to come. This package is a solid option for anyone looking to re-gear their Jeep's rear differential for improved performance with larger tires.
